How ya doin' Tamara and welcome to planDisney!
Congratulations on your once-in-a-lifetime visit to the Walt Disney World Resort and a happy birthday to your son. I hope with all of my heart that it's a dream fulfilled. And I see that the crowning moment would be a visit to
Savi's Workshop - Handmade Lightsabers at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at
Disney's Hollywood Studios. This is a wildly popular attraction for
Star Wars fans of all ages so making a reservation is highly recommended. Pro-tip: If you weren't able to grab one at the 60-day mark prior to your arrival, all is not lost. Check every day to see if one has become available. People cancel experiences for all kinds of reasons and at all kinds of times and you just may get lucky and nab a spot.
Now a limited number of reservations may be available on the day you want to build your lightsaber up to 2 hours ahead of time. That number is unspecified as I assume it may be partially based on no-shows and cancellations. If this is the approach you're taking, I've seen all kinds of beautiful miracles take place at the Walt Disney World Resort and this one would be just as special.
Tamara, may the force be with you on your upcoming trip. Fingers crossed that things will work out in your favor!
Happy planning!
Taylor
