food IS a theme park
Star Wars Day is coming up, and you might NOT get to spend it in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Disney’s Hollywood Studios has been notorious for hitting reservation capacity since Disney World reopened. Now, May the 4th is coming (Star Wars Day, get it?) and those reservations are already filling up.
Happy Super Bowl Sunday, everyone!
Cinderella Castle
Although it was a little stormy last night, we had gorgeous blue skies at Disney World today! So come along with us for a beautiful day at Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT!
It was only a few years ago when Disney’s Hollywood Studios was barely a blip on anyone’s radar, and many travel sites called it a half-day park at best.
Hollywood Studios Entrance
But that all changed with the addition of a few new lands and attractions, and Hollywood Studios is a park you could easily spend two days or more at now! [Read more…]
We talk a lot about how Disney is on the cutting edge of technology — and that’s true — but that’s not the only tool they have in their kit.
Star Wars Lightsaber Experience
Combine Disney’s advanced technologies and engineering with expert business models and a company-wide market value of almost $200 billion, and you’ve got a company that’s poised to morph the entertainment world forever — and that’s just what Disney is attempting to do. Here are three ways Disney is changing the way YOU experience entertainment!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of the most immersive experiences in Disney World and Disneyland.
Millennium Falcon
After opening in 2019, this new land has wowed guests with unique eats, characters experiences, and mind-blowing attractions like Rise of the Resistance. But do you ever wonder about the story behind the magic?
Throughout 2020 we saw some Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge merch finally arriving online at shopDisney!
Star Wars Merchandise
We’ve loved being able to snatch up some of our favorite merch from Batuu online, including creature plushes, awesome clothing, and more! And now even more Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge merch is available online. Want a few droid companions or other merch from Droid Depot? These are DEFINITELY the items you’re looking for!
Hello from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
We just took a walk around the park to see what’s new, so here are the latest updates!
Character meet and greets in the Disney parks are a little different right now.
Pixar Motorcade
Each of the parks has character cavalcades — “mini parades” that allow guests to see their favorite characters strolling through the park for a short time. However, we’ve also seen a number of physically distanced meet and greets in Disney World, like Buzz in Tomorrowland, Captain Jack in Adventureland, and Winnie the Pooh next to the Imagination Pavilion. The character meets have also changed over in Galaxy’s Edge, and today we noticed some new differences…namely an outfit change with one of our heroes!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has some truly AWESOME merchandise!
Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run
Jedi robes, droids, plushes of weird galactic animals, if it’s Star Wars related, they’ve probably got it! We’ve especially been loving the lightsabers and lightsaber accessories! You can build your own saber at Savi’s Workshop, or you can buy one that’s already made. And if you’ve got a lightsaber (or an interest in buying one), there’s a great sale on blades in Galaxy’s Edge TODAY!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is FULL of great merchandise for Star Wars fans!
Porg Shoulder Plush
You’ve got plushes, lightsabers, droids, Jedi robes, even olive oil! And yesterday, a brand NEW droid joined the lineup of options in Galaxy’s Edge, and it’s one you may recognize!
