Star Wars Weekends?

[Xanthe]

Hi everyone!

So, long story short....we're canceling our Aug 2009 trip and re-booking for May 2010. I'm excited for the Epcot Flowers, DH is excited for Star Wars weekends and we're BOTH excited for our 15th

Can anyone tell me the dates for Star Wars Weekends this year? I'd love to see pics of previous years as well for my DH...he's SO excited!!

TIA
Xanthe

Hi,

This year's dates are Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, May 22 - June 14. But plese keep in mind that SWW are not always the same weekends each year.

Thanks for the info!

Is it always the third week in May? We're planning May 18-29 next year and I'm really hoping my dates will coincide.

Does anyone have any pics?

thanks
Xanthe

No. In 2007 and 2008, the SWW were all in June.

I hope its in May next year...now I'm worried.

You know whats weird? The bounceback they offered us was May 31-June 7....kinda weird they offer it for SWW...that place is always packed at that time

SW does sound way cool. I'd love to see some personal pictures.

Wow, a year preparation really makes your excitement in a high level. But why you cancelled your trip on August?

I've read rumors that this year might be the last SWW at DHS. Anyone else seen this?

Oh no, really?? I havent heard that this may be the last SWW!! Im glad Im planning my May SWW trip as we speak ( ok, type :rotfl)

We went to SWW in 2007. My son LOVED LOVED LOVED it. He was 5 then. It really was cool to see all the characters, the special parade,& the REAL actors from the Star Wars movie. The storm troopers on the roof as you came thru the turn styles were awesome, and the Hyperspace Hoopla party at the end of the day was a lot of fun. DS had his face painted like Darth Maul and couldnt wait to meet all the Dark Force people ( figures he would like all the 'bad' guys) He has done nothing but talk about going back and since my AP's are still good.. we will be there in May! I cant wait.

Not a chance! It brings in too many people and too much $$.

If you want pictures with the characters (Jedi Mickey, Darth Goofy, etc) be prepared for a wait, and let your kids know that they MAY not get a picture with each character, as they change quite abruptly... We got my son with Jedi Mickey, but while waiting in line for Darth Goofy, they switched to Princess Minnie.

I was fine with that, but my wife, who I think has a thing for Goofy BTW , was very sad....
