Bright Suns Nebu!
Welcome to planDisney! Building a lightsaber is an important rite of passage for every Force user- whether for the Light or the Dark side!
When heading to Walt Disney World Resort, there are a few places for Force-sensitive people to create their custom lightsaber! The main Park to visit is
Disney's Hollywood Studios! Ride your Tauntaun or just walk to Black Spire Outpost at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. Now, due to the secrecy and needed materials that need to be found, there is a special experience here that needs an
Advanced Reservation.
Savi's Workshop is where you will be able to create very custom lightsabers under the guidance of the "Gatherers." These lightsabers are of a collectible quality and are not meant for real battle play. It is a hot ticket so make sure you reserve it as soon as possible. The earliest you can book is 60 days before your arrival but I would keep checking. I recently got a reservation one week prior!
If you are looking for something very special and already built I would visit Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities. You will find here some famous lightsaber replicas used by legendary Jedi and even Sith Lords.
For the young padawans or those who would like a simpler experience, I would detour in the Park towards
Tatooine Traders! This is the gift shop at the exit to
Star Tours- The Adventures Continue and it is a gem of a shop. There is an area in the back where with the assistance of a Cast Member, guests can create custom lightsabers that are good for play and can survive sibling duels. (I know this from personal experience)
If you don't want to pay for a Park Ticket there is another solution! Park your speeder bike for free at Disney Springs and head towards the
Marketplace! Locate
Star Wars Trading Post and you will get a similar experience as you would have at Tatooine Traders.
I hope I was able to help you and I wish you well on your journey in the Force!
