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

[soniam]

that's the thing no additional info on SotF have been announced other than the fireworks. I'm hoping for an announcement this week

Super Sleuths!!! I swear, Star Wars Weekends and Disney in general get the investigative angle out of everyone
You are right. No dinner is showing for H&V starting January 4th.

It sounds like the roller coaster is about to start again

Do we think this means Launch Bay will not open until SOTF begins? I was so hoping to check it out in December...

No, Launch Bay is opening in December if not before. I don't understand why they made this whole "Season of the Force" thing to only include fireworks while everything else would be already open for a month. Maybe there will be more offerings that they are keeping under wraps.

My question is the fireworks. How is that going work when they just scheduled fantisma for the same nights?

They show Fantasmic! about 30 before fireworks. And when there are two F! Shows the fireworks are in the middle

Same way the did all summer with frozen fireworks in the middle of the Fantasmic shows.

So, do you think they would open up at 6am EST online, or do you think there would be a parks blog announcement first and then open up, usually by 10am EST?

If it happens like with all other SWW dinning events that need reservations it opens first and then DPB announces.
I'm not sure at what time online

Ashley Eckstein will have Her Universe products featured at 8am on HSN and tonight HSN is doing a special Star Wars show benefiting UNICEF

I'm not sure how it could NOT have been cost effective....$50 per adult for breakfast? Yes, it was good and we are (were?) planning to do it again, but no way was that a money loser for Disney. I seem to recall reading that the characters were not Disney cast members, but volunteers, like 501st.

They are Disney cast members. The 501st is only involved in the parade or occasionally to walk around the park during the May the 4th event.

I think I read that the UNICEF show starts at 7PM EST and Ashley will be doing that as well.

So, I just learned my lesson. Was just emailing with my travel agent about our Jan. trip and about how we will only do 3 days and skip HS unless Seasons of the Force has started then since we spent so much time there in June. As soon as I sent that email, I decided to see if anyone here had updates, and of course, as always, you do! I love this board! Thanks all, now off to email TA again to add day 4.

With Season of the Force coming to DL on November 16 this year, I'm hoping WDW starts it by our trip Nov 27 - Dec 2.

That's a weird disparity between the two parks. One park it starts three weeks before The Force Awakens comes out, the other park it starts three weeks after The Force Awakens comes out. I didn't realize the WDW dates were decided yet.

Disneyland doesn't have the fireworks aspect and their launch bay started construction prior to DHS's version. They also have hyperspace mountain starting in November. Disney hasn't officially announced all of the offerings at DHS other than fireworks, launch bay, and likely special Star Wars desserts.

not announced yet but confirmed thru the official AP site calendarhttp://events.mydisneyresorts.com/apCal.html
DW has the Osborne lights attracting more people during the holiday season I don't think they wanted extra entertainment added to that time of year

Especially since this will be the last year for Osborne Lights.

Oh god, I just got approval for a January trip to wdw last night. We weren't going to go again so soon but we got $1000 flight vouchers because we got in a day late last may. We were going to go later in the year but we just recently found out my wife is pregnant with our third child and is due May 1. Not a good date to hit SWW. so we decided sooner would be better.

Now I find out about this season of the force business. I feel like this is going to be one of those things Disney drops the announcement ball on. Trickling out information that everyone has to dig for. Oh the joys of planning a disney vacation.
