One of the posts on the first page of this thread has all the info about cost.

You can make reservations for the party, and it's recommended to do so.

I went to the party last Saturday. Here are my pictures http://disboards.com/threads/star-wars-year-round-light-side-or-dark-side.3466651/page-4

I think page 251 had @yulilin3 review of the party.

HELP please!

My HS day is T, May 17th, which currently has a closing time of 8:30 PM. I have the F! Dining package @ Brown Derby booked, and there is only one show at 9 PM.

However, with the news that Star Wars fireworks will be there during our visit (!!), I'm now unsure what that means for my plan. Is HS likely to stay open later, as I've seen for some dates in the past, with fireworks later in the night? Or can we expect them to be around 8 PM?

I'm taking my boyfriend to WDW for the first time, and would love for us to fit in both F! and Star Wars fireworks. But we're huge Star Wars fans, so we'll prioritize the fireworks if necessary. Or, potentially cancel our dinner (6:10 PM) if there is a Star Wars dessert party && then try to make both shows...

Sorry if this has been asked/answered before--May is turning out to be a very difficult time to plan!!!

I know this has been asked and posted 20 million times on here, but here we go again. What time do we need to arrive before our scheduled JTT (Jedi Trials) if DS is participating? I thought it used to be 30 minutes, but it looks like the shows are about that close together during our trip. I am having to redo my plan due to TSMM FP+ getting canceled. Thanks

I've never done it but we're planning on DS doing it so I've been reading up. Several places say 30 minutes, including in this post from Josh… That sucks about the TSMM FPs.

Any clue as to when the announcement will be made? I'm wondering about how many shows per night and FP. Not sure if I would book it as a FP but it's a thought and our window opens 4/5.

no clue on announcement, CM block out dates have been announced for April and the last 2 weeks is completely blocked out for them to bring family and friends. I am going to say that there seems to be 2 shows per night. Not sure about fp

8pm would be early for fireworks in May, if there are fireworks at that time expect them to be later and park hours might be extended. Just try and keep your plan as flexible as possible for now and keep an eye on this thread

Just got back from our volunteer shift at the Princess Half (5:30am until 11am) and then a quick trip to DHS. We got our BB8 ears, but the stock was low. Stephanie got to meet Kylo for the first time with the Visa card meet (5 minute wait) and she loved him, here are some pics
snapchatting, Kylo was talking at this point wartning about joining the Resistance

Then we headed to JT and found the nice surprise about Kylo joining the show

regarding Rivers of Light a mid level CM that we know told us in January(when we were down there) that they were aiming for three 22 minute shows per night (they were working on cutting down the time - at that point shows were 28 minutes each and that was going to make it hard to get 3 shows in). I didn't ask about FP but should have

My younger DS is going to FREAK OUT to learn this in the morning. Kylo Ren has been his favorite since the first time we saw the 3 blade lightsaber. It's going to make his day

Our whole family watched! So excited for Star Wars Land!

I missed it, so I'd love a recap of any news or tidbits related to SW Land!

 

[yulilin3]

I'm going to share this article from WDWMagic cause it has basically the same things I was thinking http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions...l-shows-new-concept-art-of-star-wars-land.htm
First of all, the size of this land looks massive, and I'm considering only up to the point where the tallest structures in the background are.

Millenium Falcon ride sounds like a TSMM concept, you get to shoo and target things
The Stormtrooper ride sounds like Spiderman, 3D probably, relying heavily on screens and movement
But the thing that got me most excited was the look of immersion which Disney has been lacking and Universal has taken full advantage as you can see in both HP lands.

 

[yulilin3]

not the best quality video but I found this one about the SWLand segment

remember that kids don't get to fight him, they still only fight Vader or the Seventh Sister but it's really cool when Kylo comes out to confront Nedriss

 

[AThrillingChase]

I have to say that initially when they announced these lands and said they would be based on new movies, not originals, I was skeptical. But of course TFA was better than I Could have hoped ( JJ). So now I am even more excited to see what they do with this. The dining choices specifically. That "market" sounds like Harambe market at AK to me. And I would bet the cantina will be similar to Maz's. The dining club looks like it could be really interesting too. So in other words, we should all start stalking the ADR page...now.

 

[yulilin3]

I wonder what they come up with, there's no real mention of food in Star Wars so whatever it is, it should be interesting.
I've been obsessing over the wide angle photo trying to figure out where SWLand will be.
I don't see Star Tours at all in that picture since all the structures have a round design on the roof, and also it looks like a street leading up to it, so I was thinking Streets of America but then ST would be far away.
The other option is that ST is somewhere in the middle of that picture but then it would mean that Muppets and Mama Melrose would be gone.
And I have a lot of things to do today but I keep coming back to that picture...I need help.
