There are plenty of reasons to celebrate when you’re in Disney World, but an obscure holiday might top the list.
May the Fourth — Star Wars Day — is coming up soon and we’re expecting some exciting things in the parks and beyond. Disney has announced a ton of snacks and drinks will be coming, along with some exclusive merchandise. If you’re spending the holiday in Disney World, we have an important update you might want to know about!
Did you know that May 4th is a HUGE deal in the Disney parks? For Star Wars fans, May the Fourth is basically a HOLIDAY, and when it comes to Disney holidays, you can’t celebrate without some merchandise! Disney will be releasing some exclusive merchandise for May the Fourth, and if you’re hoping to snag some of the items we’ve got an important update for ya!
Disney has shared that a Virtual Queue will be used for the May the 4th Merchandise Event at the Stage 1 Company Store in Hollywood Studios. You’ll need to use My Disney Experience to join the queue, and a standby queue won’t be an option for this event.
You’ll also need valid theme park admission and park pass reservations for Hollywood Studios to join the VQ, which will start at 7AM. But, you DO NOT need to be in the park when you join — just a park pass for Hollywood Studios. There’s a chance that this merchandise might be pretty popular since this Disney really only celebrates the holiday on one day!
From Walt Disney World to Disneyland Resort, TONS of new and returning treats are arriving just in time for May the Fourth. You can check them out here! And, if you can’t make it to the parks for this merchandise event, you can still celebrate by snagging some Star Wars merch on Amazon and shopDisney.
We’ll be on the lookout for more May the 4th and Star Wars Day news, so stay tuned to DFB. Plus, be on the lookout for our reviews of all the tasty treats coming to Disney World!
