Hiya Michelle - welcome to
planDisney!
Thanks so much for stopping by with your question for our team of panelists. We love to help Guests just like you plan magical Walt Disney World Resort holidays! I'm excited to hEAR that you have an upcoming trip planned! You'll be visiting during the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration - get ready for exciting new attractions, entertainment, food, and so much more!
One of the most unique spots at Black Spire Outpost is
Savi's Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge in
Disney's Hollywood Studios. The Gatherers have spent years searching the galaxy for salvaged parts and pieces. At the workshop, they'll welcome you in to reassemble their treasures into your very own unique lightsaber!
Currently, Walt Disney World Resort is experiencing unprecedented demand for many experiences, and Savi's Workshop is one of the most popular. If you've been checking for reservations regularly and haven't found any available times, please continue checking, perhaps even daily. As other Guests' plans change, as they often do, their canceled reservations are instantly available for other Guests to book!
In my experience, both experience and dining reservation availability starts to get interesting (in a good way!) about a week before my trip. I think that's when a lot of Guests start reviewing and tweaking their plans, which usually means canceling some experiences in order to accommodate new plans. I also tend to see a flurry of new reservation availability about 24 hours in advance - that's when some Guests realize that they won't be able to make it to an experience, and decide to cancel to avoid any late cancelation or no-show fees that may be assessed.
If all else fails, there has sometimes been limited walk-up availability and same-day reservations at Savi's Workshop. So, if you aren't able to secure a reservation, I would make that my first stop of the day. Ask a Cast Member what your options might be - I'll have my fingers crossed for you!
I hope I've helped -
please let me know when additional questions arise as you continue planning your magical vacation!
