Bright suns, Anna Marie! I am happy to serve as your Jedi Master as you navigate the planet of Batuu (also known as
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at
Disney's Hollywood Studios)!
The most popular attraction in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance! Less an attraction, and more like a mini-Star Wars movie starring you, this is a nearly 20-minute long adventure! In order to take part in the action, a Guest must secure a boarding group (virtual queue) assignment using the
My Disney Experience app.
There are currently two times during the day that Guests can secure a boarding group assignment. The first opportunity to gain an assignment is at the 7:00AM enrollment. To do this be sure to have: 1) a valid park ticket, 2) a
Disney Park Pass reservation for Disney's Hollywood Studios, and 3) the latest version of the My Disney Experience app downloaded to your phone! At 7:00AM, you can login to your My Disney Experience app to secure a boarding group assignment. You can do this from the comfort of your Walt Disney World Resort hotel or even within the Orlando-area. You do not have to be present inside of the park to secure a boarding group for the 7:00AM enrollment.
If you miss out on securing a boarding group during the 7:00AM enrollment, there is a second boarding group enrollment time at 1:00PM! The difference for the 1:00PM enrollment period is that Guests must be present inside of Disney's Hollywood Studios to secure a boarding group assignment.
To secure a boarding group assignment in either the 7:00AM or the 1:00PM enrollment, click on the My Disney Experience app on your phone. Scroll down to where you see "Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance - Request Access with Virtual Queue." Click the button at the bottom that says, "Join." Continue to follow the prompts to secure your group!
Anna Marie, with this new knowledge, you should be well-prepared to join the battle against the First Order! May the Force be with you!
Hakuna Matata! Jonathan
