Welcome to planDisney, Annika!
Just like you, Earth’s mightiest heroes are assembling as we speak to get ready for this summer. I’m thrilled you are asking about the Avengers Campus and
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. It’s like all the things I love combined in one question!
I can just hear the “Avengers, Assemble!” call when picturing the new
Avengers Campus, a brand new Land at
Disney California Adventure Park. This MARVELous campus is set to open on June 4, 2021. My son is a huge fan of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe), and I know this will be tops on his wish list, including attractions like WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure, Ancient Sanctum, the Avengers Headquarters, and Guardians of the Galaxy-Mission: BREAKOUT! I believe this will be hands down the most popular Land this summer!
Jumping over to Disneyland Park,
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is an incredibly immersive Land that will have you convinced that you are actually on the planet Batuu and a part of the Star Wars universe! Riding
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is an absolute must do, and Disneyland Park will be using a
virtual queue to assist Guests in reserving their riding experience.
Annika, I have some awesome news! Once you have secured your
theme park tickets and
theme park reservations for Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, you are all set! In other words, there’s no additional fee to enter
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge or the Avengers Campus! (Can you imagine how the Hulk would react if there was an additional charge?)
However, there are several experiences you might like that would require additional reservations or an extra cost. Two examples I can think of are building your own lightsaber at
Savi’s Workshop-Handbuilt Lightsabers or creating a droid at the
Droid Depot. Both opportunities MAY be available when Disneyland Park reopens, subject to availability. Currently, the Disneyland website says that you can check for reservations for Savi’s Workshop beginning April 22, 2021. Meanwhile, Droid Depot doesn’t require a reservation, so check onsite for availability.
Summon your powers and message us at planDisney with more questions, Annika. We are always ready for a new planning mission. Like Captain America would say, “I can do this all day!”
