There's a LONG Virtual Line in Disney World — But Not for What You'd Expect!

It’s Star Wars Day and Disney’s Hollywood Studios is bustling with fans!

Rise of the Resistance

Today, Disney has already given us a look at a REAL lightsaber and shared more information about when the new Star Wars hotel will open. And, if you’re headed into the parks to visit Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge today there’s more to explore before you even get to Batuu!

Disney is hosting a special May The 4th merchandise event in Disney’s Hollywood Studios today only. The store is set up in Stage 1 Company Store at Muppet Courtyard and there is already a waitlist to get in.

Cast Members were ready to help before you even got into the park

When you first enter the park, you can find a sign where you can scan the barcode and sign up for the waitlist with your phone number.

We signed up early in the morning and there were already 844 parties ahead of us!
