Hello there, Darin! Welcome to the wonderful world of planDisney! Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out and asking an excellent Walt Disney World Resort vacation question!
You are in for quite an adventure during your upcoming visit to Walt Disney World Resort at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge! In just a few short months, you will be transported to a galaxy far, far away to experience your own adventure on the distant planet of Batuu! Here, you will be able to explore the Black Spire Outpost which is home to an eclectic mix of travelers from all areas of the galaxy. During your time visiting, you will have the opportunity to sample local cuisine, shop among the various stores, and even pilot the Millennium Falcon on
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. It’s easy to see that your day will be filled with excitement and a lifetime of adventure!
One experience that is on many Guest’s “must do” list is building your own custom lightsaber at
Savi’s Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers! This experience takes place in a hidden workshop overseen by the “Gatherers” who have worked to collect unusual parts for you and the other Guests. You will have the opportunity to choose from four unique hilt themes as well as the very heart of your lightsaber, the kyber crystal!
Booking comes available for experiences up to 60 days in advance. This means that you will be able to book an experience at Savi’s Workshop - Handbuilt Lightsabers 60 days before your scheduled time at
Disney’s Hollywood Studios. It is also important to keep in mind that these reservations typically open up at approximately 5:45 am Eastern Standard Time. This is important to keep in mind if you are outside of this timezone at the time of booking!
Best of luck creating your perfect vacation to Walt Disney World Resort! Please let us know if we can assist with planning in any other way!
