So am I reading it correctly that the new Star Wars fireworks show is starting only 3 days a week, but then in late June it changes EVERY NIGHT?

the current show, Symphony in the Stars a Galactic Spectacular is only being done 3 times a week until June 17th when the new show, Star Wars a Galactic Spectacular, debuts and is done nightly

And then will never be seen again after June according to the current schedule.

I am a bit nervous for this new show...Disney using this phrase "State-of-the-art projection effects, dynamic lighting, lasers and pyrotechnics light up the night like never before! " I'm hoping that it looks like the concept art, the current show is pretty much flawless and I will be sad to see it go. But hoping the new one is better.
Already marked my calendar to go see SitS the last time it's shown on June 15th

I am actively watching this thread as well, I am hoping to book the dessert party for Nov. Planning has been very difficult this year. It will all work out though

I'm thinking they're going to model it off of the new Shanghai fireworks show. Lots of projections and water effects with that show plus fireworks but it looked like most of the fireworks were castle based and not as many shot off from the distance. I'm presuming that makes for a cheaper show overall. I'm gently lowering expectations for it as I think it'll lose some of the spectacle if they do cut back on the (jar-jar speek) bigga boomas - but with the right combinations of projections and lighting it might more than make up for it (like Fantasmic - but you need something on the scale of Mickey's disappearing act to make it all work)

What time typically is the star wars fireworks in comparison to the Fantasmic show? Looking at pictures where you are located for the fireworks is important, so what's the best plan of attack to do both? Or, is it best to not try and do both on the same night? Also, where is the desert party located at and when do they let you in for that?

^^^THIS. If anyone has this info. . . so far in November, DHS closes at 7, so that's when Fantasmic! is. So approx., what time (based on previous) would the Star Wars fireworks start? I am just trying, emphasis on TRYING to leave nights open for this and ROL/whatever they will call it in the fall.

They have been doing f! At 9pm and fireworks at 9:45, it usually takes about 15 minutes to get from f! To the fireworks. I would not recommend trying to do both on the same night but if you have to you have just a bit of time
The dessert party is off to the left side of center stage , if the fireworks are at 9:45 they let you in around 8:30

The times will likely change for November, it's way to early to rely on posted times.

I so hear you. We are also waiting for November to open. This might been one of our most difficult trips to plan so far.

I have told DBF this. I advised him just this morning how difficult planning his first trip is teeth: because of course he is the reason it is difficult, lol). We can do this though- we'll be Disney planning rockstars when it's all said and done
