It's great to see you here today at the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Michael! 2019 is going to be a big year at Walt Disney World Resort. There's so much happening, but the biggest event is sure to be the highly-anticipated opening of
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at
Disney's Hollywood Studios this fall. Star Wars fans from all over the world are going to want to come visit, because it was announced in 2017 that a Star Wars-themed Resort Hotel would also be opening soon.
Since the resort is still under development we don't know the opening date just yet, but we did get a lot of new information about the brand new one of a kind experience in the last few months. We saw some amazing
artists' renderings of what the rooms are going to look like, with each one having a view into outer space. Can you imagine getting a chance to stay there? It's a dream come true for me for sure. We also learned that guests will enter a launch pod to be transported to the resort, and since it will be built next to Disney's Hollywood Studios, guests can also be launched straight into
Black Spire Outpost on the Planet Batuu for a seamless transition from resort to theme park.
Stay tuned to the
Disney Parks Blog for more information as we get closer, including the opening date so you can book your own journey to a galaxy far, far, away!
