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

[hiroMYhero]

Im considering the Star Wars desert party for my family of four(two younger children). I was hoping to get some feedback from anyone who has done this. Was it worth it? Was the viewing location good? Are there actual seats in the viewing location? I appreciate any and all opinions on this. Thank you.

Will Merge you to the main SW thread where reviews are posted.

Party reviews in Post #4.
Dessert Parties Reviews

Tons of reviews in post 4, as hiro mentioned. There are no seats in the viewing area (or the dessert area), but having 2 littles myself, it's definitely worth it. You're going to spend the time waiting anyway, might as well enjoy desserts while you do it! Mine would never sit still on the ground for an hour! The kids are usually invited into the wheelchair viewing area for a front row spot, but if you prefer not to be separated, simply head to the viewing area about 15 minutes early for a spot right at the ropes. You can also take strollers into the viewing area to use as a seat, if wanted.

for some reason I stopped getting notifications on the thread Glad everyone got their tours booked. Remember to come back if you can and give us a review on it, and if you have done the dessert party in the past, let us know if upgrading to the tour was "worth it" or not to you
Celebration is just 3 weeks away

I am always losing the notifications on the thread. Think if I stay away to long it thinks I don't want to know about them or something.

I've found that to be true, too.

If you at least check the thread, your notifications continue. Odd that would happen for @yulilin3 because she was just on a couple of days ago. I've had to reset cookies because my emojis show as a code... this has happened to others, too.

I did not get a notification for your post, and I'm watching the thread with emails included. I got the email but not the page notification

I wonder if resetting your Alert Preferences will restart notices.

I receive email notifications for PMs but not for thread posts and haven't searched to find where to turn them off.

You can also go to the forum that contains the this thread and select "Mark Forums Read" underneath the Forum link at the top left. Then you can just mark that particular thread or all as read. The notices should show up again then.

@yulilin3 just checking my timing...if in June, everything mimics May, we can check in/get our dessert party lanyards around 7:45, go into party around 8, yes?

We will be doing Epcot and a midday break earlier, so just figuring when I absolutely need to be at DHS and if earlier, what attractions we can check out beforehand (we will have another full day later in the week).

Storm troopers lead party guests out 15 min ahead of show? So was the suggestion to go out about 25-30 min before the show to get a spot close to the front of the reserved section? Or am I remembering wrong?

TIA!

 

[Luna81]

Those who have done the tour, did you have any time for souvenir shopping? Or should we get there before the tour to do that?

 

[tstidm1]

Just called Disney on this because I wanted a Galactic Nights ticket. They sold out earlier yesterday. That means I'm doing the 501st bash instead. For those going, Give us tons of great reports of the event.

Does anyone know how far in advance you can book the Star Wars dessert party? Saw they only go out to May 31 right now....nothing available for June and after. Will be going in September so will the dates not be available til about two months out or so? Thanks!

I did a mock booking today for a a random May date so that I could be prepared when my dates are released (we go last week in June). Am I able to pay with my disney vacation account over the phone? Online it appeared to be credit card only but I have some funds in my DVA I'd like to use if possible. It doesn't appear this is an option if I make the booking online.

I don't know if they still do it but they previously had an option on the DVA page to use it to make a reservation. They pretty much treated it like a Disney gift card which you can use online.

Thanks so much for jogging my memory. Of course I have to use it like a gift card. Luckily I have that account # memorized. Thanks very much for your help .

I'm sorry if this has been previously asked. I'm not really seeing it on the first page. Does anyone know what time the Star Wars fireworks will be nightly from May 26 to May 31?

Edit: Nevermind..I found it.

 

[Kamy04]

The Guided Tour opened for May 6th!!!!! Yeeeessss! Our plans aren't ruined!

DH and DS(6) are booked!

I feel like I should know this but.... I searched and have read a good chunk of the 600+ pages.

Do any of the SW characters sign autographs?

I've been looking for an appropriate book for my kids to bring to get their autos and I realized, I don't even know if they sign.
