Hello Krista! Welcome to the Disney Parks Mom´s Panel.
The
Jedi Training Academy is an awesome family experience. Boys and girls get dressed as Jedi knights and interact with Jedi Masters as they prepare to meet the Dark Side.
Family members get to enjoy a funny show featuring their young ones. This is a really small show and family members get front view, allowing us to take unique pictures of our children. Still, there are no seats available and family members must stand or sit on the floor. The show runs for about 20 minutes, which can be to long for some guests.
The
Backlot Express has a few tables just by the Jedi Training Academy, so you may try to enjoy a meal at one of these tables just before the show.
It is very important to be at Hollywood Studios at park opening time, to sign up your young padawans at ABC Sound Studios. Each show has limited capacity, so be sure to get there early.
Swords and robes are provided by the Jedi Masters, no need to bring or buy your own.
My kids love to take part of the Jedi Training Academy and we adults get to enjoy a funny show and the smiles of our kids.
Glad to help you plan a magical Disney family vacation.
Hope to hear again from you.
Miguel
May the force be with you!
