No idea when you can book your time but I would go to sign up as soon as you get there, remember you can enter at 5pm with your party ticket
patiently awaiting times for the Star Wars show at the Indy stage and the motorcade

Can I use my magicband to get in?

Guests will need an event credential, which can be picked up at the Main Entrance, Muppets Courtyard, the Hollywood Hills marquee, outside the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular theater entrance, and Ticket Central after 7:45 p.m.

7:45?

7:45?

Yup, below is the full statement.

The party begins with an early mix-in for event Guests at 5 p.m. Event Guests will be wearing an event credential, which can be picked up at the Main Entrance, Muppets Courtyard, the Hollywood Hills marquee, outside the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular theater entrance, and Ticket Central after 7:45 p.m.

That doesn't make sense since the party starts at 7pm. Maybe they meant it can be picked up until 7:45?

I think it's correct, and I don't know for certain if that's the case here, but what I've seen in the past is that after almost all of the guests have picked up their credentials, they'll close the other pick-up locations and establish one central location where the late arrivals will still be able to pick up their credentials.

Want to do both Fantasmic and SWAGS on Easter Sunday. How early would I need to be in front of the Chinese theater to see projections? Could I arrive straight from Fantasmic (8:50 PM about by parking myself by exit) and still get a good view in front of the Chinese? Missed out on Galactic Nights, so Sunday is my full night there and want to see SWAGS.

I can't tell you about traveling between Fanstasmic and the Chinese Theater, but when we were there in July, my DH and DS rode TSMM until just about show time. They were coming up the stairs from Pixar Place just as the show started and had no issue finding a spot. It was the three of us, a couple of Disney Execs with what appeared to be sound engineers, and maybe 3-4 other people. The view of the fireworks is limited, but the projections are awesome from there.

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?

The tour doesn't have breaks apart from toilet breaks. I would get their earlier to do your shopping.

Good to know. Thank you!

Another December question...do you think the Star Wars Tour will be offered during the Christmas and New Years week when it's super busy and JBJB is the night time show?

Giving my question a bump...anyone have any guesses or insight?

My guess is not during the weeks of Christmas and new years

Your welcome enjoy the tour.

We have tickets to the dessert party.
Should we also go to Launch Bay separately? Or will we fully experience Launch Bay while at the dessert party?

Looks like HS is open until 9:30 in May of this year. I looked at historical hours last year and it wasn't a trend. Think June will continue this?

At check-in, it's explained to party goers that the party is a mix and mingle affair and are encouraged to experience the Launch Bay during the party. There's a directory and floor plan on the back of the credentials showing what's available. There's not much to see and do in the actual party area. Grab some food, go explore, repeat as many times as needed.

However, if you are a big fan and will spend a lot of time in Launch Bay, then it might be better to do it separately. We found we didn't have much time to look around after getting food and talking with people we knew. Luckily, we had done it before.

I agree with this, depends on your level of interest in Launch Bay artifacts. There's a lot of information to read with each replica and prop and also if you want to meet both characters. If you just want to take a quick look ad not read at all then you can do it during the party.
I also like to talk to fellow SW fans and the dessert party is conducive to that

Some are going to be confused by this, but I've never done the entire Launch Bay. If you're not attending the party, about how much time should the causal SW fan allow to do the Launch Bay. And if you're a serious fan, how much time could you spend there?
