Bright Suns, Kathryn!
Welcome to
planDisney! Thank you for stopping by with your questions about
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in
Disney’s Hollywood Studios. I would love to help you with some advice and recommendations for your visit next month so that you have an out-of-this-world experience when you visit.
The first thing you will need to do is download the
My Disney Experience mobile app. From this mobile app, you will be able to view and manage your plans and reservations, view theme park hours, showtimes, and attraction wait times, place mobile food orders, join the virtual queue for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, and make dining reservations.
If you plan to join the Resistance in the fully immersive
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance attraction, you will first need a
theme park reservation for Disney's Hollywood Studios. You will then have two opportunities to join the virtual queue; the first opportunity is at 7:00 a.m. and another at 1:00 p.m. You can read a step-by-step guide for joining the virtual queue to obtain a boarding group for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance on this
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge - Frequently Asked Questions page. I highly recommend searching for videos and tutorials on the internet that show you the exact process for joining the virtual queue and how to maximize your opportunities to experience this one-of-a-kind attraction.
I highly recommend that you continue to check for reservations for
Oga’s Cantina during your visit. You never know when availability will pop up for this unique experience. You can check for availability on the My Disney Experience mobile app by going to the "+" symbol located in the middle of the bottom of the home screen. Once you select the "+" symbol you will see Check Dining Availability at the top of the list of options. You can then choose your party size, select the date you would like to visit, and then the time. You will then see a list of available options. You can also go to the search option on the bottom of the screen and type in Oga’s Cantina at the Walt Disney World Resort. Once on the page for Oga’s Cantina, you can select Reserve Dining. I recommend doing this often to see if new availability appears.
I hope this information helps you have an unforgettable visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in
The Most Magical Place on Earth! Please stop back by planDisney any time we can help answer your vacation questions.
May the Force be with You!
