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

[ddavev3]

I attempted for every party available in June and I'm still getting "We were unable to check for available tables at this time. A problem occurred while looking for availability. Please try again later."

Back to refreshing every 10 minutes or so.....anyone else have luck booking in June?

Nope. Still getting the same "error."

So question about the dessert party - can I use Disney Gift Cards as payment? Of course I don't have those on me here at the office so I hope this thing doesn't sell out between now and the time I get home. Should I be worried?

they take full payment at time of booking. I think you can pay with gift cards, but not 100% sure

\\
June 17th is still not. I couldn't get June 15th to show up either

I can't see any dates after June 3rd available...keep refreshing

What is the rain cancellation policy for fireworks? Will they still have the show as long as there isn't lightening? I'm assuming the dessert policy doesn't get cancelled even if the fireworks are cancelled, is that correct?

dessert party cancellation policy is 1 day, you get a full refund if you cancel at least a day before your date.
In case of rain the party is held inside Disney Jr. and the area outside is roped off and available for you to come out and watch them. Fireworks get cancelled if there's lightning/thunder in the area or very heavy winds. Rain shower won't cancel

I had the same issue when May dates were released. What I did was book online using a credit card to make sure we were locked in. Then, when I got home, I called to try to pay with gift cards. The rep I got told me it was unavailable, which I knew to be untrue as I was checking online and could have booked (again/more people) if I wanted to. I called back the next day and got a rep who was able to get the availability I knew existed and had no problem taking my gift card for payment. Then I cancelled the reservation I had made with credit card. So if you're concerned about your party selling out, that's what I would suggest, if you're okay with the possibility of it staying on your cc in case of sell out.

It looks like they only opened up until 6/3. I can't get anything past that date to show a time.

I get the time showing for June 24, but when I click to book it gives me an error. I called up and the the woman on the line was extremely helpful, trying 10 different ways to book it for me, but no go. She did confirm that nothing has been booked after June 4 for the dessert party.

Seems to only be going up to the 3rd at this point.

Which would match the rumor of the new fireworks starting the 5th.

the dates are posted until June 29th for both SiTS fireworks and the corresponding dessert party. It just hasn't opened up for booking.

will we know if the new fireworks start June 5? I would like to see the old fireworks on June 3 if the new one is on the 5th

 

[rteetz]

will we know if the new fireworks start June 5? I would like to see toehold fireworks on June 3 if the new one is on the 5th

I would assume Disney would announce it I can't see it being a surprise.

I booked June 3rd this morning around 8am.

yes, it opened until June 3rd. Most people here are waiting for the rest of the June dates

My guess is they will 'announce' it on May 20 (they've been saying for a while now that more info is coming this Friday).

I'm still holding out hope that the new ones will start on 6/5 despite the current info on the website. Maybe on May 20th (along with the Animal Kingdom info) they'll announce that the new fireworks will start at HS on 6/5 and then they'll open the bookings then. I also think that the party will cost more, too, if that's the case. I'm going to book for 6/8 regardless, but if it's not the new fireworks/projections, I'll have to think long and hard if I actually want to keep the reservation.

I was thinking the same thing. The dessert party will be more valuable once the new show starts because the only way to really see the whole thing would be in front of center stage, the current fireworks you can pretty much see and hear from Echo Lake all the way to the Animation courtyard.

Exactly.

That makes sense...although I figured that the new fireworks would be a nightly show.....do you think if its announced on May 20th then they would open it as a nightly event?

anything is possible at this point.

I agree -- anything is possible. The idea of them also releasing additional dates at that time (i.e., making it nightly) has crossed my mind, too. If they don't open the bookings for 6/5 forward by some point today, I think we have some hope for at least new fireworks and/or more dates.
