Howdy Alyce!
Welcome to
planDisney! Thank you for sharing this great question with us!
I am super excited for you and your party to experience
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance! This experience is like no other, and I know you are looking forward to it! To join this virtual queue, you will need to download the
My Disney Experience App onto your smartphone. From the My Disney Experience Mobile App, you will see the “Virtual Queues” option. At 7 A.M. on the morning that you are scheduled to visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you can click on this option from your hotel room and try to obtain a boarding group for your party for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. Then, once you are in Disney’s Hollywood Theme Park, If you were unable to join a boarding group during the morning hours, you could try again at 1 P.M. I recommend opening up your My Disney Experience App at least one minute before the times listed above, and continue to refresh the page until you see the option to “Join.” Make sure to have everyone linked on your Family & Friends List on your My Disney Experience, then when you score passes to join a boarding group, everyone can enjoy the experience together.
You will be visiting the
Walt Disney World Resort at the perfect time! Since Mickey and his pals opened their doors to guests on October 1, 1971, this October will mark 50 years of “Making Dreams Come True,” and you will be visiting just in time to kick off the festivities. This 18-month event will be a once-in-a-lifetime, monumental celebration, and I know you are excited to experience this EPIC event! To stay informed of everything at it is announced, go to “
The World’s Most Magical Celebration” and “Sign Up!”
To stay informed of everything scheduled to re-open in the weeks and months to come, check out the
Disney Parks Blog! If you have any more questions, please come back to planDisney! We are always here to help you with all your planning questions, Alyce!
See Ya Real Soon,
