Hi Christian and welcome to
planDisney! I see that you have a
Summer visit to the Walt Disney World Resort in the works! Thanks so much for sending me your planning question.
I’m so glad you sent in this question now, because it’s the perfect time to order those cool bracelets and schedule a time to get a lightsaber or a droid!
Those cool bracelets also make things super convenient for you during your vacation.
MagicBands are the quintessential accessory for your visits to “The Most Magical Place on Earth” because they can serve as your room key at your Disney Resort hotel, you can make purchases with just a quick tap on a sensor and a pin number, and you can use them to enter any of the theme parks.
While the bands are no longer complimentary during your stay at a hotel within the
Disney Resorts Collection, you can purchase them at
shopDisney online before your visit. There are so many to choose from and I have to tell you, I have a Slinky Dog Dash MagicBand that is still my favorite to use during my vacations year after year.
Christian, you won’t want to miss a visit to
Disney’s Hollywood Studios to build a lightsaber at Savi’s Workshop. My brother-in-law built one when they first started offering the service and it’s kind of showpiece in my sister’s family room, because it’s so much fun to have! He loves to give the whole rundown about all the different details on his lightsaber, pretty much to anyone who will listen! Make sure to
visit this link to make your reservation as soon as possible. It’s a very popular experience and once you make your lightsaber, you will love it and understand why!
The Droid Depot at the Walt Disney World Resort is an awesome way to spend some time at the Black Spire Outpost. You will also want to make a reservation for this experience as soon as possible to ensure your spot.
I hope this information is helpful to you. Don’t hesitate to come back to visit us if you have any more planning questions. You can also follow us on
social media to keep tabs on what the planDisney family is up to at the theme parks. It’s always our pleasure to share our advice and help with all the details of your next
magical visit!
