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

Guests were allowed into DHS over an hour early this morning to sign up for Jedi Training! They then waited at the internal ropes for the park to officially open.

For those going to DHS soon, keep checking if this sign-up procedure remains. Guests who arrive 45 minutes before official park open could find themselves 30 minutes behind the early arrivals for Jedi sign-ups. Interesting procedure!

Thanks for the heads up!

How would we be able to check this? Just from word of mouth on the boards? Or is there anything official?

Jedi sign-up procedure has never been "official" and the best thing to do is follow this thread or specifically follow @yulilin3's posts. Yulilin is in the park on a weekly basis and keeps everyone updated.
 

not sure if this picture is part of the WDWMagic story

That image above to me really looks like it could be Echo Lake.

Excited about the new Firework show that i can check out in September
 
I actually thought of the area in front of LMA- wasn't that a circular area in front? And it would make sense with the Streets of America/Monsters Inc closures?
that was my first impression as well. Not that it matters they are still demolishing everything and rebuilding. I just don't see how they will manage to build around Star Tours, especially having Muppets right next door, we have official confirmation that Muppets are not leaving anytime soon (which could very well mean this year) but how are they going to make this work? I guess I'll obsess over this for the next couple of years :)
Unless they will leave ST as a space port and then the new land (planet) is further down

I'm sure we won't know until they want us to- unfortunately! I think they need Muppets right now as an attraction. And it would be easy enough to convert the space to something for Star Wars land when they are ready. With Pizza Planet closed and rumors of MM next, as well as everything else in that area closing, it seems odd that Muppets would remain indefinitely. Maybe they will do a "Pigs in Space" redo and theme it to Star Wars...

Nah, I think it's pretty straightforward - Once Toy Story land is finished they wall up everything around Star Tours and make it only accessible from "muppet land" - then they tear down Indiana Jones area and maybe echo lake - although my gut feel is they'll extend behind Star Tours (they have to anyway because just echo lake and Indiana Jones isn't enough space for an entire Star Wars land... I think... I guess AdventureLand isn't really all that large an area...)

any word on if it was just JTA folks let in early or if everyone else could go in early / wait by the 'ropes'?

Was at Rope Drop this morning. Only breakfast guests entered through the far left tapstile.

All other guests waited until park open at 8:50. No JTTT signage at the entrance tapstiles - CMs with signs were at the Hollywood and Vine (Starbucks) intersection.

I just came from DHS and met with @hiroMYhero we walked around trying to get our Imagineers hard hats on and figure out where Star Wars Land will be.
If the do keep Muppets I feel they will make a path behind the current Star Tours ride building. That way once you hit Star Tours and to the right (where the speeder bike is) that where SWLand will start, then take over all of Streets of America, eventually ending where Catastrophe Canyon is.
Toy Story Land will be right next to TSMM and behind that ride building where all the old offices and the old Studios backlot Tour used to go.
I feel they will keep Echo Lake and it's surroundings as they are.
That's my opinion anyways.
 
sort of related. They opened more spots for the SW half, here's the wording on the HUB
The new Star Wars race at Walt Disney World Resort will be an intergalactic experience involving kids' races, a 5K and a 10K in addition to the half marathon, plus a variety of Star Wars experiences, medals, events and merchandise inspired by a galaxy far, far away. Among its many features will be a unique 13.1-mile course that propels runners through Epcot, Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park and Disney's Hollywood Studios and finishes at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.
