Fans are clamoring for the opening of the new Star Wars Launch Bay in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Getting to meet Darth Vader and Chewbacca outside of Star Wars Weekends is a dream come true for many. Well, it appears the dream isn’t very far away!

Disney Cast Members have been informing some insiders that Star Wars Launch Bay could soft open as early as November 27, 2015 with an anticipated regular opening of December 6, 2015. A soft opening means the attraction could open briefly, test, and close again often. A test and adjust period is normal in Disney World to make sure an attraction is performing properly.

Star Wars Launch Bay will feature interactive exhibits, live video game play and opportunities to meet some great Star Wars Characters.

Now that we know Launch Bay will be opening on Dec 1 is there any chance that there is still a soft opening at the end of Nov. I will be in Hollywood studios on Nov 28 and worried i might miss a pic with Darth Vadar and my Son!

Thanks, I will just be happy of Launch Bay is open and we can get Chewie & Darth pics to celebrate the opening!!

I've heard from a pretty reliable source 2016 is the last year. I'm glad we are already booked for weekends 1 & 2!

So do you think there wont be a Star Wars Weekend next year even though this looks like there will be? I can't imagine them NOT having it with as much money as they HAVE to be making. My son will be DEVASTATED !! He's already been talking for 2 months about next year and them having new characters from the new movie!
