Bright Suns Kristina,
I’m Ashley, a Human-droid relations specialist at planDisney, your planning destination. As someone who considers herself to be a
Star Wars superfan and proud owner of one of Savi’s masterpieces, I’m happy to answer your question about
Savi’s Workshop-Handbuilt Lightsabers. The Force must be very strong with you to forge and wield a lightsaber.
Unfortunately, since the emergence of Savi’s covert operation, many Jedi and Padawan have flown in from across the galaxy to experience it, making it the most popular destination for those high in Midi-Chlorians. I spoke to a friend in the Rebel Alliance, and they confirmed that Savi’s Workshop doesn’t have any more available space for May 16-23rd at this time. The Gatherers at Savi’s are mandated to keep their operation small to avoid detection from Kylo Ren and the First Order.
But fear not, Kristina (fear has been well documented to lead to the dark side), all hope is not lost for you. You may still be able to secure a coveted spot at Savi’s.
-Check back later. As other Guests change their schedule, there is always a potential (though not guaranteed) that a spot will open up closer to your trip. To avoid a costly cancellation fee, Guests will often cancel their plans in the days leading up to their trips.
-There are often a limited number of walk-up spots available at Savi’s per day (subject to availability). You can always locate a Cast Member near the secret location in Black Spire Outpost and inquire about walk-up availability for the day (you also may be able to do it through the
My Disney Experience mobile app).
May the Force be with you, Kristina. I hope you can get a spot at Savi’s. If you need anything, please reach out to us for help with your future planning needs.
Til the Spires!
Ashley F.
