food IS a theme park
We’re excited about many of the new projects coming to Disney World soon, but if there’s one that intrigues us the most, it would probably be the new Star Wars Hotel!
The Halcyon Model
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser is set to open in 2022 and it’s unlike any other Disney Resort. It’ll be similar to a cruise ship experience, where guests are “onboard” for two days. However, there are also many interactive elements of your stay — and today we got a fresh look into what it’s going to be like!
There are several exciting new additions coming to Walt Disney World soon!

We’re currently waiting on more details and opening date announcements for big projects like the new Tron Coaster, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, and the rest of the EPCOT Transformation. On top of those, Disney World is building the very first Star Wars hotel, and today we got the promotional poster with some bonus details!
Star Wars – Galactic Starcruiser, the Star Wars-themed immersive overnight experience at Disney World, is a “resort” unlike anything you’ve experienced before.
Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser
While you may find folks referring to this one-of-a-kind destination as the “Star Wars hotel,” it’s far from your traditional Disney World hotel stay (or any hotel stay, for that matter!). But there’s a pretty big problem guests at this hotel might face that we haven’t been talking about.
Wow! WHAT. A. MONTH.
Magic Kingdom
It seems that every month that passes has more and more BIG news. In this month alone, we saw major health and safety measures phase-out, a fan-favorite show came back, and we got information on what Halloween will look like at Disney World this year! So let’s dive into the BIGGEST updates from May in Disney World!
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (a.k.a. the Star Wars Hotel that isn’t actually a hotel) will be opening in 2022!

So far, we’ve gotten a look at some of the characters you’ll meet during your intergalactic journey, a peek at the “real” lightsaber guests will get to check out there, and an update on some signage coming to the hotel. But what does the construction at the actual hotel look like right now? How are things coming together? We’ve got an update and are sharing it all with you!
Even though it’s not opening until next year, we’re getting excited for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

This “hotel” is actually more of a 2-night experience, and it will throw guests straight into the middle of their very own Star Wars adventure. There will be cool restaurants, a lightsaber training experience, and SO much more. And it all sounds like a ton of fun!
We’re VERY excited for a certain hotel offering coming to Disney World soon. Can you guess which?

Yep, it’s the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser. This totally immersive offering will debut in 2022 and we can’t WAIT to visit The Sublight Lounge, see a “REAL” lightsaber in person, and more! Now, we’re checking in on behind-the-scenes progress!
We got some BIG news earlier this week about the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel coming to Disney World!

While this immersive experience was initially scheduled to open in 2021, it was pushed back to 2022 — and we got tons of info about dining, a sneak peek at a SUPER cool lightsaber, and so much more. In fact, we got SO much news that it can all be just a little confusing! Which is why we’re here: to break down everything we know (so far!) about this hotel. Let’s get started!
We’ve learned SO much about Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, a.k.a. Disney World’s Star Wars Hotel, this May the 4th!
It’s the Halcyon!
Unfortunately, we learned that the two-night immersive hotel experience has been delayed until 2022. BUT! We also learned that there will be a REAL extending lightsaber onboard and that there will be the Crown of Corellia Dining Room, which will serve breakfast and lunch to guests before transforming into a more formal dinner venue and have performers each evening!
We hope you’re in the mood for some STAR WARS NEWS.

It’s May the 4th, AKA Star Wars Day, and Disney just dropped a LOT of new info about the Star Wars Hotel, Galactic Starcruiser. We learned when it will open (it’s been delayed), that it will show us a new kind of lightsaber, and about a featured dining experience onboard. Now, we’ve got ANOTHER Starcruiser update!
