I am sure that I am missing this right in front of my face, but what time is Symphony of the Stars?

first weekend 9:45pm and the rest at 9:30pm
The entire schedule (minus weekend V) is on the first page

I hope you first weekenders are getting something special between 9:30 and 9:45

So I have the Sci Fi Galatic breakfast booked for June 13th and 9:35am. I am going with my sister. First timer. What can I expect? Any food favorites?

I really enjoyed the Kessel Run last year. The kids' Gammorean Goodness was also quite tasty. I'm not sure what the line between "Entree" and "Dessert" is, but I'm pretty sure that cinnamon-crusted french toast sticks dipped in chocolate sauce is over that line.

Tattooine Sunrise


Breakfast Pastries


Word is they are doing away with the dessert but will bring new items for this year

Thank you! I knew it was somewhere in plain sight!

I was able to get Jedi Mickey dinner through the Dining Buddy at 8:40. I am going to keep that one and hope we see some of the fireworks.

the good thing is that just by stepping outside of H&V you'll have a good spot for the fireworks

Happy Dance! Now I have something for everyone. Yay! The breakfast with Darth Vader and Boba Fett for my 14 year old and the dinner with the Disney characters for my 9 year old!

can't say I've ever considered skipping the entire SWW event because there are some that go to the event in order to purchase merchandise to resell. Although I must say after seeing the photo of that dude who bought 50 Cinderella coach popcorn buckets I had better try to get ahold of a Han in carbonite bucket ASAP.

I want Elliot's Lobot mix!

that's my priority purchase for weekend I. The Han Solo bucket, Boba Fett stein and the Her Universe At At shirt

 

[MakiraMarlena]

I know..maybe I'll regret flying Friday night if that guy shows up Friday afternoon and buys all the buckets.

Me neither. If that's how you feel, wouldn't you just be making more room for the resellers by not attending?

Personally, I don't care about the resellers at all. Is it greedy? Probably, but there are bigger problems with the world, and selling on eBay is a PITA. Disney tries to put limits in place but it's a free market & low availability + high demand = high prices. I hope the items eventually find their way into the homes of fans, though, and don't languish in a warehouse somewhere, not being enjoyed.

I'm glad the Galactic Breakfast starts in early May so I can read some reviews before we go. I don't want to be the guinea pig for everything...lol

Parade viewing no later than 10am if you want a good spot. Fireworks anytime after 8:30pm

after 8:30 you can enter for the party..

People pay that much? Really?

Thats nothing. You should see how much the Vader MBs from last year are selling for However, at least those aren't as readily available and way cooler than a Cinderella coach bucket.

I think I have an illness. I have created Touring Plans for our potential SWW trip in 2016, when I still need to finish some of this summer's vacation planning. I guess Colorado Springs isn't holding my interest like WDW and SWW. I can justify it by saying that planning now and reading the thread in real time will save me the time of having to search the thread later this year

 

[roselark]

Quick question. We have the Fantasmic! Dining package with our H&V Star Wars Dine ressie. We will go to the first show. I have read that we should be able to catch the fireworks from Symphony of the Stars on our way out, is that accurate?
