Greetings Lauren!
I'm so happy you've sent in your question, and I'd like to welcome you to planDisney. Planning is a large part of the fun, in my opinion. You're on the right track, arranging some magical must-do's ahead of time!
Being able to build your own lightsaber is such a quintessential experience when visiting Galaxy's Edge, in Hollywood Studios. And yes - you can reserve this 60 days in advance, even from the UK. The process is just a little different, but fortunately my UK planDisney panelist friend Emma has
shared some excellent tips on how to do so. Building a
lightsaber at Savi's Workshop is part of the Enchanting Extras Collection, which can be reserved by Disney guests 60 days prior to their arrival date. The easiest way to make reservations from the UK, is via the "Chat With Us" option on the
My Disney Experience app.
Before I go, I'd like to share a recommendation from my kiddo's favorite thing to do when we visit Hollywood Studios. It's dropping by
Oga's Cantina for a refreshment and out-of-this-world party! My young teenager and I went to Oga's on our recent mom-and-son trip, and I was surprised at how much he enjoyed it. We both selected delicious "Concoctions without Alcohol", and he still talks about that as one of his favorite highlights of our trip. Try the Carbon Freeze... you'll love it!
Lauren, you should definitely mark your calendar and hop on the app as soon as your eligibility window opens to grab your Savi's Workshop hand built lightsaber reservation. I hope all of your plans fall into place beautifully, and that you enjoy every magical moment of your time at Walt Disney World! Please send me a
message at planDisney if I can answer any additional questions.
Sending pixie-dust,
Tami
