Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Blair. I'm so glad you stopped by! I love that you're planning a
holiday visit to the Disneyland Resort. You're sure to have a magical (and merry!) stay!
I completely understand your concern. My oldest son is a huge
Star Wars fan and he desperately wanted to experience
Savi's Workshop on our last Disney vacation. I would have been so stressed out if I wasn't able to secure a reservation for him! While availability
was a little slow to open up for Savi's Workshop this coming December, I'm very pleased to tell you that it is now open 60-days ahead of time! I just did a quick availability check for your desired date and I was able to find lots of reservation times for booking. If you haven't yet noticed the updated availability calendar, go make that reservation for your birthday boy right away!
I recommend booking the latest appointment available. I was able to book my son a reservation for 10:00 PM on a night the park closed at 9:00 PM, and it was so cool! We were able to stay in
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and take really incredible pictures of my son with his new lightsaber in what looked like an empty park! It was a force-filled experience, for sure.
I hope this was helpful, Blair. Please let us know if you have any other questions about "The Happiest Place on Earth!" We'd love to help you plan a magical visit.
