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

What a mess! I must've clicked the reservation time 100 times because it kept showing me an available time on 5/15 at 8:45pm, but then would get the PAWS error, so I called dining and the CM said reservations were only available until 4/30 (and she did not seem very knowledgeable on this new event!), so I hung up and just kept clicking on the reservation and finally it worked. Site is super glitchy, but just keep trying. I would have preferred a 5/12 reservation, but with PH we'll just have to bounce around a bit.
 

The site has been so buggy, I haven't been able to check pass holder room prices since Sunday night. I was able to snag dessert party for 5/25 though, woohoo!
 
I think we are going at the worst time possible...June 12-21
So I can't plan around the star wars fireworks or dessert party.
(Not to mention ROL, Frozen boat ride, A&E meet and greet, Cinderella and Rapunzel meet and greet, and Soarin')
This is stressful.
With Star Wars, at least, I'm hoping there is not a large gap in dates between when the old show ends and new show starts. (The rest I realize we might not get to do at all)
 
Spent 30 minutes but finally got reservations for 3 on the 23rd. So glad we bought park hoppers. We will begin that morning at DHS, lunch at SciFi then off to the resort. Then afternoon at MK (since I already have FPs made) leaving there at 6 and heading to DHS. It's worth it my daughter is excited to see the fireworks and this will be the second dessert party we will experience. You only graduate from high school once.
 
unrelated to SW but related to DHS Memorial Day weekend will also see the opening of TSMM third track :) finally
In your experience, does "weekend" mean beginning on Friday, or Saturday? Obviously knowing that nothing is guaranteed, but just wondering if there was a "norm"?

I would say that a lot of people would want to experience the new things so you are going at the best time
The sw new show will probably be at the same time, 9:45pm, plan around that time. Strong rumors that it's opening June 5th
No need to worry about RoL since it won't open until later this year
Just try and leave you're schedule as flexible as possible
 
what date and how many?

Thank goodness I got a wonderful CM this time and we are in!!!! :cheer2:We are booked May 13 for 6! Thank you for all the moral support. :disrocks:If it wasn't for all of you, I'm sure I would have believed the first two CM's who told me that it was all booked up and would have been crushed. It is my SW loving son's 10th birthday that day and it was of the utmost importance that I book this! It was totally worth the 1 hour and 4 minutes I spent on the phone with Disney. :sad2: Moral of the story, don't believe the CM's that say it is booked and don't get transferred to the Internet help desk - they can't help! But they will file a incident report noting the problem. :confused3

The wonderful dining CM is named Karen if you need to be transferred to someone who can help! I haven't had enough coffee yet this morning to be able to deal with all of this!
 
Just for kicks I went on to the Disney website using my smart phone and was able to reserve this no problem! Weird! Maybe it's Internet Explorer...
 
I see availability for 2 that day I'm on Chrome

Thanks for checking! It wasn't showing availability, then it was, but then wasn't letting me book (paws message). I finally was able to. I'd prefer to pay with gift cards though so I'll probably call later and book with gift cards then cancel the one I paid for online with credit card. But happy I have it booked now, and if I don't get to switch to gift cards, I'm okay with that.
 
Has anyone done this Dessert Party? My husband is worried about the "no seating" part.. any insight to a recent experience is wonderfully appreciated! :)

We did it in March. There's no seating. Does your husband have any issues or injuries that could make standing difficult? If so and there are available low tables for accessibility, then a CM might let you sit at one of those. We didn't have a problem with no seating. You can sit on the ground, but it's dark, really dark, and you might not be able to see well on the ground. I almost stepped on several children that were sitting on the ground, because the tables are very close together and the table cloths kind of hide them.

Okay thanks! No, he's fine. I think he expected seating since there was at the Christmas light dessert party last year. We're fine standing, and our daughter will be in her stroller with no problem. :) Thank you for letting me know! I'm assuming it's in an awesome spot to see the fireworks, with yummy desserts! :) We loved the dessert party for the Osborne lights, so I am beyond excited for this one!
