Official Star Wars Weekends Thread Tips and Tricks 2015

May 4th is my birthday and our original plan was to go that day, but we switched dates to be there for SWW. I didn't realize they do a big thing for May 4th as well...

As far as I'm aware they have never done anything on May 4th officially

We are going camping this weekend for Easter and our internet service is not that great. Hope I don't miss something amazing.

We were in HS last year and they had a trivia thing and some ewoks up on the stage. Nothing too special, but there was a big "May the Fourth Be With You" projection on the screen, so it was something.

I stand corrected . To save myself a bit I will say I was talking about disneyland , which for the last 3 years and more from my understand has done squat but sell two tshirts and two or three pins

Last year the SWW face characters were out on May 4th. There isn't a schedule as they kinda run it as a dress rehearsal for SWW. The female character who wears a purple veil (I have no idea who she is) was out in all areas of the park.

I thought someone mentioned a rumor they were doing something this year? I must have mis-read.

Hold on...how has this not been mention!?! I was out all morning, just got home and the baby napping. Checked FP+, and shows are listed but are "closed for refurbishment" so unable to book yet. I scrambled over here for word, and I don't even see that it's been talked about!

Today is not the day for big announcements because I'm about to get in the car to drive to my sister's for the weekend. I may have to make a few extra stops to check my phone. Between this and the Braves finalizing their 25 man roster today, I do not want to be driving today!

They each have that orange triangle disclaimer that says "Closed for refurbishment on selected day". I assume they wanted to go ahead and get them in the system ready to open at some point.

and now we know that Warwick Davis and Ray park are coming for sure, just not sure which weekend. I see them as well. All shows again are Tier 1

 

[MakiraMarlena]

yep the shows are there but not open for booking yet. At least we know Warwick and Ray will be back although we don't know which weekends.

 

[Artax]

I checked fastpasses about 2 hours ago and they were not listed. listing them all now

 

[AThrillingChase]

I don't see any new FP additions on mine...same old choices

that's how they did it last year

 

[HCinKC]

I wasn't planning on any shows, but i Ray Park is there weekend 1, I may reconsider. ODS would probably really like that one. Curses! CURSES! How dare Disney throw a wrench in my plans!
