Just booked the dessert party for August 16th. Haven’t been since August 2016 so I’m excited! It was a highlight of our last trip!
1. Check in begins at least 45 minutes before the start time, but unless you want the pick of the tables, it's not necessary to check in or line up that early. Everyone enters at the same time regardless of when they check in.Questions:
1. The party starts at 8:30pm. The board suggests to get lanyard 30 minutes prior to the starting time. If I do that, do I get to enter the party area before 8:30pm?
2. If I want to meet Chewbacca and BB-8, when would be a better time to do so?? Before or after I pick up my lanyard?? During the dessert party??????
3. The fireworks is scheduled to start at 10pm that night. When will we need to leave the party to the viewing area??
TIA!
Have you explained to him that the Stormtroopers are target fodder, second only to the droid army units? Roger, Roger!
(Yes, I had a luke skywalker halloween costume, why do you ask?! Wanted to be Chewbacca but they were sold out...)
Do they serve the ice cream novelties at the party?....mickey bars, choc. covered bananas, etc?
My husband and I are going in September, and he's a big Star Wars fan (I'm a fan too, but not quite as much as him ). We have a 6:30 pm ADR at Hollywood Brown Derby on Friday, Sept 21st. How early do we need to be to get a good view spot for Star Wars a Galactic Spectacular? Is it hard to get a good spot? Or would we be able to finish eating and then just kind of sneak out and find a spot quickly for just the two of us?
I'll also be there in September. I was just looking on the website and noticed that there are no performance times listed for any date after August 31st. I haven't read or heard anything about the show ending in August. Have they just not listed the times yet?
Yep Disney is slow at getting that stuff out.I assume they just haven’t listed the times. I wouldn’t worry.
SWaGS and the SW dessert party resumed on Dec 15th and both shows and dessert parties were offered.did they also bring the SW dessert party, or was it *only* the JBJB dessert party that week?

@yulilin3 Is there a consistent schedule for this? I’m specifically interested in knowing when the last two time slots are. We have a Hollywood and Vine pre park opening ADR (so we are able to get an early sign up) but then are hopping to Epcot for awhile, would like to sign up to do the training later in the afternoon. Is that a predictable time?Jedi Training Trials of the TempleThis popular entertainment offering is being reimagined with new characters. Younglings will be guided to the site of a secret and ancient Jedi temple where they will face villains such as Darth Vader and Kylo Ren and discover if they have the makings of a true Jedi. -
Sign ups are at the Indiana Jones store in between 50s Prime Time and Indiana Jones Theater. First come, first served. Allow at least an hour for this experience. Kids have to check in 30 minutes before their reservations times and the show lasts about 15 minutes.
Only you can decide whether or not $79 per person is worth it to you.Ok peeps, Star Wars dessert party worth it or not? We have a 6:30 ADR at Brown Derby but the more I think about it the more I think it may be worth it to get a good spot for the fireworks. My husband is a big SW fan and I want to make sure he sees the show. Neither of us drink so that’s not an incentive for the party. Thoughts?

For us, it is because I wanted a secured viewing spot. The open bar was a nice bonus for my husband and son. I've heard they have the best desserts of all the parties.
I hate sitting around holding ground. Everyone's tolerance for that stuff varies.
Our first one will be six weeks from today.Thanks! Yea, I'm looking for different opinions, especially if you've done the dessert party after a big dinner, or watched the fireworks without going to the dessert party and with the dessert party (probably should have been clearer ). Glad to know that you thought it was worth it--the viewing spot was good, in your opinion?
