I am wondering if maybe they may even give you costumes to wear at the hotel while you are there as part of the experience possibly.

yes that's what's happening, they will provide the wardrobe

I agree with yulilin3. This is an excerpt from Disney Parks Blog back in February of 2018: "Guests visiting the resort will be welcome to participate as a resident of the galaxy by dressing in Star Wars-inspired attire." My read on that is the attire will be provided if you want to participate. I would think most that are willing to pay from such an immersive experience will want to wear the costumes. I certainly will!

 

[Runnsally]

So then the immersive storyline would be, "quick, we're headed to black spire outpost, everyone change into Earth-gear" ...?

Since the SW hotel guests will not be using the main entrance and potentially arriving outside of typical park hours, I doubt the costume restrictions will apply to them.

I thought I had read that somewhere!

The hotel seems like it's going to be run more like a cruise ship than a landlocked hotel - you "board" and spend 2 or 3 days fully immersed in whatever the storyline is on the "ship", then at checkout you can actually go out into SWGE (while you are being checked in to one of the "regular" resorts for the rest of your stay. From everything I've seen, it's not going to be a resort like other Disney resorts - more like a 2- or 3-day, locked down experience. So that would make sense that full costumes are allowed while you are "on board" but then regular costume restrictions apply once you leave the hotel to go out into SWGE or the other parks.

Disneyland costumes guidelines are staying the same. Full costumes will not be allowed. I would guess WDW would be the same.

I'm not super familiar with Disney's existing costume policy, but . . . is there a separate costume policy for children and adults? For example, it's perfectly acceptable for children to be dressed as Cinderella, head to toe, at Magic Kingdom. If my 5 year old shows up to SWGE wearing his Luke Skywalker costume, will that be allowed?

Here is the link to the policy. But in general anyone under 14 can dress up. Some things to avoid are items that look like weapons; though, lightsabers they sell would be okay. Every thing below “Dressing For Special Events” is the rules for those, which are the only times those 14 and older can dress up. I should note I’ve seen many young kids dress up as Luke, Rey, and Leia with no problems ever. Generally the CMs play into.

Disney Rumor Round Up March 2019

Great article!

Maybe the hotel-provided outfits will be loungewear, so not everyone would want to wear it outside anyway.

[Lothlórien]

maybe if they see you're done with you lunch/dinner they will ask you to leave? idk

I would say this is a definite at this point.

Wow, interesting!

So, at least in Disneyland, there really will be absolutely no point to uberfans camping out the night / morning before opening. Basically, Disney is saying 'if you don't have a pass, don't bother coming.'

I know I am a bit late in replying - but one reason I think they are being very strict for access to Disneyland’s GE and doing the reservation system is because it is the first one to open and they know all sorts of media will be there (Disney media but regular media too) and know they will be broadcasting images of what they see - and that will be a form of marketing for the land. And they want that video to show a controlled land with crowds that aren’t insane and not 13 hour queue to get into the land, etc.

Basically they want to strictly control the first images that much of the world will see of the actual operation of the land

Since DHS is opening later, I don’t think they are as concerned about this since all the media will already have their footage

 

[TheMaxRebo]

My biggest take on this is that Star Wars "inspired" outfits will be allowed because it's kinda just an eccentric way to dress. I think you will be banned from dressing as a specific character in the star wars universe

I agree. And if they are selling Jedi robes I have trouble seeing them not allow people to wear what they just purchased. But like you said, no specific characters and no like full on Wookie costumes, etc

 

[TheMaxRebo]

Just a reminder to everyone that if you see stories today about Galaxy’s Edge with lots of details, details, etc ... to please take notice of today’s date

I already saw one about a special paid event scheduled for Galaxy’s Edge (I could tell it was fake when it mentions signs would be in Klingon)
