Hi Kenny, we have Fantasmic VIP seats for the first show. How do we get into position for the symphony fireworks?

That's a tough one. You'll need to be among the first to leave and hurriedly make your way to Hollywood Boulevard or Echo Lake.

I've never been to MGM during Star Wars weekend. We are going for my daughters birthday, we planned on going there mainly for Sofia and the Disney Jr area and to see the beauty and the beast show. Also we have a reservation at Hollywood and vine. But How does it work? Does the entire oark shut down and turn into Star Wars?? Will we only see Star Wars characters or will there be normal characters? Is the beauty and beast show even open or is that SW events only? I've heard the crowds for SW weekend is crazy, and especially since it's opening weekend. Should we scrap MGM and just do magic kingdom Saturday? And then go to MGM on Monday? What's your recommendation?

Most characters continue regular meets. Minnie, Donald and Goofy change for SWW. Mickey is two costumes. BatB will be mornings only. Schedule. Funny that you still call it MGM :) If you aren't interested in SWW, go on Monday for lower crowds.

What exactly is "An Ewok's Tale" and "Star Wars Rebels"? I grabbed FP+ for both because they sounded like something my son would enjoy but I didn't see a description anywhere. Thanks Kenny!!

I was excited to see weekend 5 FP+ open this morning... but they all say "closed for refurbishment". Huh? Do you know if that means they are all gone? Or is it a glitch? Argh.
