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

I just read the Chip and Co article -- just to clarify -- they're not reporting the rumored end, they're just wondering what all the rest of us are, and hoping it's not that. All they say is that they noticed there's no fireworks or parties scheduled past the first week of November, and they're hoping that doesn't mean they're ending them. So there's no new info.

And if you look at the "Disney Addicts" blog (which seems to be part of Chip and Co?) there's a 3-day old post about it where the author says she called WDW and a CM told her that it would definitely be added and that it's already scheduled for Thanksgiving on the employee calendars (meaning that it just needs to be updated on the WDW site). Take it with a grain of salt, but this is what I'm holding onto for the time being.

Like I always say, nothing is official until it's reported on the disney parks blog or directly on the site
The show is not scheduled past November 5th on the Hub ( internal cast member site) so the cm that said that lied as well
 
I also wondering what is taking so long to update this schedule for fireworks and dessert party? To be honest, I'm having second thoughts about the dessert party since I'm thinking that since the Fireworks aren't every night this will be more crowded than usual. Also reading people not being able to see all the screens is a red flag for me. I'm very small and this worries me a bit. Now that there's a possibility of ROL, that's another thing to think about. :faint: Does anyone know if the fireworks themselves are viewable from outside the park? Not the screens but the fireworks only. I wouldn't be too surprised if Disney held off on the SW fireworks myself with the possibility of ROL, and the beginning of MVMCP and other holiday events.
They have been doing this with the schedule all year, sometimes it's been just 2 weeks before the update
As to the show, you can see the fireworks from outside the park but the firework element is not large and you will miss the show itself.
If you don't want to do the party (guaranteed viewing area) then you should grab a spot at least am hour before
 
Do the Jawas at Studios actually speak some Jawaese? I found a neat little dictionary of words, numbers, & phrases online. Is that something they might respond well to, worth having the boys learn a few, or would they mostly only know and use "Utinni"?

They don't talk back bur get really excited when you say utini
Also tons of writtings in Aurebesh, if you want to have fun translating that, all over launch bay. Cool stuff
 
We got our FP hand out on Oct 9 (after hurricane) and only 2 of 4 of us were in line. The party next to me had 2 of 6 in line. FP were given for all members of the party.

There were only four is us total, but we were still give a FP for 5. Not sure why.
 
I've read that they like shiny things, but what is the process of attempting a trade? Do we just approach one, hold out an item to trade, and ask if they're interested?

We were there 10/3, and that is exactly what my boys did. One contemplated a long time, then did trade.

Could be! I was just pointing out that there is no consistent info, even from the same source. Nothing wrong with holding out hope! :banana:
 
IMO, osborne lights were awesome. i know they had to let them go because they're getting rid of the back lot for star wars worldland, but a holiday fireworks show is not a substitute. and when you have a very popular star wars themed attraction that fits with the theme of the park, that people are calling and asking about and paying ridiculous amounts of money extra to be a part of a party for, and a movie coming out next month, then maybe a holiday fireworks show isn't the way to go.
agree 110%
 
I feel like they're holding off on releasing more dates because they're adding something tied to Rogue One. They are going to spend a ton of $$$ marketing this movie so it makes sense to me to add something to the existing SWGS and maximize the marketing opps. But, that's just me!

Aw man! No wonder theyre not showing anymore future dates for SWaGs. I'm pretty upset by this. :mad: My friend is a huge Star Wars fan and he's gonna be pretty disappointed. Besides they could have just kept the holiday show at MK. This new show doesnt seem all that original or unique anyway. It sounds like just a World of Color with fireworks instead of water.
 
I just saw the news. I am so upset. DH and I are HUGE SW fans since the womb and we couldn't wait to see the show :(
