So if their handing out wristbands at 6AM and I get there with my fiancé at 6AM - I can basically expect to not receive a wristband for the big panel of choosing? I guess at the least I need to be there at 4 or 5 correct? If everyone else is there before us, their going to get one before us. Do the wristbands just assure you a seat? Then from 6am I need to stand in that line until 11am when it the panel begins correct?
Here are your options for the big panels on Thursday and Friday (only panels people are allowed to sleepover)
For the Thursday, 40th Anniversary panel:
get in line anywhere from 8pm to midnight (wednesday night) or after 5am Thursday morning. The venue will close from midnight to 5am so no one can line up during the timeframe
Obviously the earlier you get there the better chance you have to making in into the Galaxy Theater (main room) if no wristbands are left for that they have other viewing rooms with seating where they will be live streaming the show (Celebration Stage, Behind the Scenes stage) you have to have a wristband for these viewing rooms as well
For the Friday Last Jedi Panel:
get in line anywhere from 8pm to midnight (Thursday night) or after 5am Friday morning. The venue will close from midnight to 5am so no one can line up during the timeframe
Obviously the earlier you get there the better chance you have to making in into the Galaxy Theater (main room) if no wristbands are left for that they have other viewing rooms with seating where they will be live streaming the show (Celebration Stage, Behind the Scenes stage) you have to have a wristband for these viewing rooms as well
After you get your wristband you can chose to get in line for the actual panel or go somewhere and come back. They will allow start loading the theater around 10am, so if you want a seat closer to the stage you can get in line right away
The wristband guarantees you a seat in that specific theater
