Six Star Wars changes coming to Hollywood Studios

4. Star Tours – The Adventures Continue upgrades

Star Tours at Hollywood Studios gets new Force Awakens sequence

Fourth, Star Tours – The Adventures Continue will return to offering randomized beginnings.  It will no longer travel to Jakku on every flight.  It will also offer different final destinations.  We should expect a new scene to be added from Rogue One as well.

5. Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party returns

Fifth, In 2017 the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party will return.  It offers Star Wars themed snacks, savory items and special (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) drinks.  You can read my review of this experience here.

6. Star Wars Guided Tour

Sixth, Disney is going to offer a new Star Wars Guided Tour beginning in 2017.  It will be a 7 hour guided tour that will be led by a Disney guide who is said to know all things Star Wars.  It will offer the following features:

  • A Star Wars “all-in-the-know” tour guide
  • Priority boarding for Star Tours – The Adventures Continue
  • Encounter two Star Wars characters (Chewbacca and Kylo Ren) at Star Wars Launch Bay
  • An in-depth, insider’s tour around Star Wars Launch Bay
  • Screening of “Star Wars: Path of the Jedi”
  • Enjoy Star Wars-themed menu items during dinner at Backlot Express
  • A spot in the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party, which includes themed sweets and specialty beverages, as well as reserved viewing for the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular fireworks show

Children ages 4 to12 can also train in the way of The Force in Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple.

Priced at $129 per person, tours begin Jan. 2 2017 and will be offered on Mondays and Saturdays throughout 2017. Reservations for January tours can be made soon.

If you don’t wish to pay the $129 per person, I created my Perfect Star Wars Day Touring Plan several months ago that also will allow you minimal waiting, but obviously wouldn’t include the dessert party element, you could purchase that separately.

What do you think of these new offerings?
