**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

I think that alone is very telling. They either aren't going to have it and don't want to tell us, or they're waiting to announce an alternative. If it had already been decided I think this would have been a good opportunity to say something.

They usually don't announce it til December or later in past years. I think the CM's have no idea what's going on one way or another.

I don't think Disney really cares if it's a good time to announce something or if people are waiting. I think they announce stuff in their own time and way, when it's convenient for them. We are really reading way too much into all of this. We just need to either be patient and wait or make our plans without knowing. I know it sucks, but we are going to go crazy if we don't.

EDIT: Or we are going to drive Yulilin crazy

again, 100% agree.
We can continue to speculate as to why, when and how but we cannot control what they do.
We had information about Disney SW friends not doing meet and greets or the dinner from the end of SWW 2015 (now confirmed by the wording of DPB)
We have information from someone on the inside about the cancellation of the Sci Fi SW breakfast (not confirmed yet)
We know SotF will happen next year and had dates for it until Disney took them away, maybe they are making it a 6 months thing now? we don't know, and there's no point in stressing over it.
The only thing that keeps my hopes for SWW2016 is that it still shows on the site. And this is why. Up until last week they still had Mulch Sweat and Shears performing at DHS for NYE...and until yesterday they had their page on the DHS entertainment tab. Since then, they have gotten rid of it, so they are on top of the site, at least.
Until we get confirmation from Disney one way or another we need to chill and be patient, and with that, I am off. Everyone have a good rest of the week and weekend and talk with you on Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning

Maybe I am reading too much into this, but on the "cancelation" of the Mickey Jedi dinner at Hollywood and Vine . . . I don't see that DPB says it was canceled. I see that they are announcing the seasonal Minnie thing as year round. With that being said, I find it interesting that in the comments, there are several questions that are answered by DPB, however ALL of the Star Wars questions are not. I am going with the assumption, that there is something else in the Star Wars dining theme in the works to be announced at a later date. I also have the same thoughts on the Sci Fi breakfast. The comments on the "cancelation" of that seem to be along the lines of Sci Fi diner isn't having it, not that it won't be happening elsewhere. If I have missed over a post that clarifies this, I apologize, these are just my thoughts. This will be our first year going to SWW so I am refusing to believe that it will not happen!!

Don't we know this will not be happening because they can no longer portray Disney characters as Star Wars characters? Not to say they can't have something else, or like you said, have it somewhere else but aren't we certain there will no longer be Jedi Mickey, Darth Goofy, Stormtrooper Donald or Leia Minnie?

I don't think that's confirmed about the characters, just a rumor. But it seems highly likely no Disney SW characters. Character meals could still happen though.

Just booked Poly from 5/23-5/30... Fingers crossed.

 

[hiroMYhero]

but aren't we certain there will no longer be Jedi Mickey, Darth Goofy, Stormtrooper Donald or Leia Minnie?

Yes, Angi, you are correct. It was confirmed during SWW '15 that it was the final time that Jedi Mickey and friends would be seen anywhere.

Well we weren't planning on doing WDW next year unless it was for SWW, but I was thinking about planning a small trip to MK & HS the weekend of my wife's b-day (1/30). Hopefully Season of the Force is going on, so we can at least do that. I was going to keep it a surprise for the kids in case they announce SWW and I cancel everything. But they still haven't announced any official dates for Season of the Force besides the deleted passholder dates, right?

Watching Episode I in the backyard tonight to start getting everyone ready for VII. Then Sunday - Star Wars with the Phoenix Symphony - fun weekend ahead!

I got a call from guest services and she said they have been getting a lot of emails and calls on SWW.

She has been doing SWW for the last 7 years and has not been told that it is not going to happen and said we'll have to wait for a announcement.

I asked about no Sci-Fi meals and she said it is going down for refurbishment but doesn't know when or for how long.

She said SWW is extremely popular and has no info on it not happening.

We will just have to wait and hope its gonna happen.

 

[Iowamomof4]

Sci-Fi going down for refurbishment?! Wow. Just when you think HS can't get worse...

Well it IS in the heart of the reconstruction... It'd be nice if they could expand it though...

 

[shannonkma]

I don't know if anyone else has, but I did get an email back from guest services saying they will be having SWW. They have just not announced the dates yet.

 

[pangyal]

We just booked our flights which are non refundable so I am really crossing my fingers now

 

[soniam]

Could you please post the text from your email? I don't believe anyone else has received such info. Thanks

 

[Iowamomof4]

Yes, it will be interesting to see if this "refurbishment" is part of the overall construction (transforming it into a cantina atmosphere?) or if it is simply a run-of-the-mill refurb.

If this is true, it is fantastic news. Please post the text if you could. It would make A LOT of folks very happy.
