This years dates were announced Dec. 2013. The celebrities and shows come closer to April

Which makes it very difficult to plan WHICH weekend(s) you want to go. :confused:

Woo-Hoo!!! We are all booked for our trip! May 20-25. First night at VWL, and the rest at BWV!! I knew I would be able to get something but I never feel complete until I have the confirmation number!

Now I just have to be ready for the Dine-In breakfast.........

Sorry if this has been answered I only had time to make it through the 1st 6 pages. (I'm still reading as I can;) )This is our first SWW. Hoping for memorial day weekend but our 4 yr old is obsessed so I have a feeling we will be changing our dates if its not.

A couple questions: (Sorry if they have already been asked or answered I'm catching up I promise!)

- Are Fridays any less crowed than then the rest of the weekends?

-Since our ADR dates are before they usually announce SWW if we booked a H&V F! Dinner the Friday before memorial day weekend would it change to a SWW Dinner package or will it probably not be talking reservations if they haven't announced it?

-When did they release ADRs and fireworks packages last year?

-If we probably just want to do the breakfast/Dinner and see the characters (but not meet them because that's not his thing right now) Is there any event we should be going to? He's 4 so I feel like most events will go right over his head. Am I wrong?
TIA

Fridays are less busy

If you book the dinner and they change it, yours will be changed over and the price set at whatever they decide.

A 4 yr old who likes SW will enjoy a good portion of the events. The wandering characters, the parade, the fireworks, Darth Mall, he may like to meet the characters too. He might also like jedi training and the padawan mind challenge (it is cute even if the kids have no idea of the answers). Trading with the Jawas could be fun for him too.

I dont recall when they announced the meals. It wasn't too far in advance if I recall. They will likely announce much farther in advance this time.

thanks!! It was great meeting Taylor, he was very sweet and nice

Yes, he is!! We met him both weekends. Saw him at an early meet before the first rebel ' s show that Ashley hosted. Jj was very interested about how his weapon worked. And he went to great lengths to demonstrate. So JJ just thought v he was the best! And couldn't wait to see it in action at the show.

Thank you so much! What is the Jawas Trading event? I haven't seen that one. I've thought about the Jedi Training. That is offered during the week as well right? He gets really shy and scared around characters. I think the Disney characters in SW gear may be more his speed this trip. However I could be totally wrong. We will have to play it by ear. I know he will want to see it all I just don't know how close he will want to get.

Did anyone do the Fireworks package last year? Did you find it worth it? I'm assuming its a lot like the dessert party at the MK?
