Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Hollywood Studios!
And, we’re here to share SO MUCH merchandise that’s made its way into the park, so let’s dive right on in!
Alright, we have OFFICIALLY been to all four Disney World parks BUT…one of these things is not like the others. While other Disney World parks seem to have smooth sailing with their reopenings, Hollywood Studios is struggling with crowds, pinch points, wait times, and ride breakdowns.
Disney Park Pass reservations are slim when it comes to getting into Disney’s Hollywood Studios — which means it, and its headliner attractions like Rise of the Resistance, the brand new Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, and Slinky Dog Dash, have been a serious draw for guests since the park reopened on Wednesday. It’s absolutely Disney World’s hottest ticket right now, and that means — despite Disney lowering capacity in the parks — it’s BUSY.
We compared Disney World’s glitziest park’s opening day with all three of the other parks and crowds were definitely heavier. We even went back the next day to see if crowds and pinch points lightened up. Spoiler alert: They didn’t.
With a smaller footprint, fewer open rides, and Disney World’s most popular attraction by far, Hollywood Studios has struggled to reach the same equilibrium the other parks achieved relatively quickly.
We’re hanging out in a reopened Hollywood Studios this morning, and we’re not the only ones.
When we got into the park this morning, we noticed that most folks had two priorities — get a Rise of the Resistance boarding group and get in line for Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. Rise boarding groups were gone in under one minute at the 10AM release and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is dealing with some serious demand of its own. The queue FILLED UP.Â
After being closed since mid-March, today Disney’s Hollywood Studios officially reopened for guests!
We snagged a Disney Park Pass reservation so we could see what it’s like to spend a day in the park with the new health and safety measures in place. And that includes experiencing the rides and attractions! Here’s what it was like to ride Toy Story Mania in the recently reopened Hollywood Studios.
One of the most high-demand parks in a reopened Disney World is Disney’s Hollywood Studios.Â
We’re not super surprised that everyone is eager to get into Hollywood Studios. After all, with limited capacities, you might think it would be simpler than ever to get your chance to ride Rise of the Resistance in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. We took a spin on this mega-high-demand attraction today and there have DEFINITELY been some changes. Take a look!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios has officially reopened its gates to guests!
The reopened Disney World parks have implemented a number of new health measures for the safety of both guests and Cast Members, including required face coverings for all Cast Members and guests age two and older. With all of the changes around the parks, we wanted to see what it’s like to ride some of our favorite attractions — like Slinky Dog Dash!
Hollywood Studios and EPCOT are officially reopening in Disney World today.
We are reporting LIVE from both parks to give you all the details on crowds, wait times, and the overall park changes. OH, and, of course, we will be answering the biggest question on most people’s minds — the new Rise of the Resistance virtual queue.
We’re just a few days away from the reopening of Hollywood Studios!
Today, Disney held Cast Member Previews of both as-of-yet-unopened parks. We’ve been taking a look around EPCOT all day and now (thanks to a friend!), we’ve gotten a glimpse inside the preview of Hollywood Studios! Let’s check it out!
We’re just a few short days away from the reopening of Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 15th.
We know we’re not alone when we say we’re pretty excited to ride Rise of the Resistance in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge again. Initially, Disney had announced that the Virtual Queue would NOT be returning. However, Disney just announced that Rise of the Resistance WILL be using a MODIFIED Virtual Queue when Hollywood Studios reopens.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios will reopen on July 15th.
We’re most excited about the return of dining and we’ve got an eye on a few of our favorites. Last week, Disney announced the restaurants that will be reopening with the theme parks on July 11th and 15th. We noticed that most of our favorite Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge dining spots would be opening. Now, though, one has been removed from the list.
