food IS a theme park
It is crazy to think that Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened in Disney’s Hollywood Studios over a year ago!
Galaxy’s Edge
There are so many unique experiences on Batuu like piloting the Millenium Falcon or building your own lightsaber. Savi’s Workshop, where “scrap metal” turns into a saber, recently reopened, and now, taking a cue from Droid Depot beginning to sell loose parts, they’re selling additional parts for your lightsaber!
May the CHARMS be with you!
Pandora Store in Legends of Hollywood
It’s true we’ve seen A LOT of Disney-inspired Pandora charms in recent years. In fact, Pandora just released charms for EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival and a Mickey Pumpkin charm for the Halloween season. Well, brace yourself (and your WALLET!!) for more because Pandora just released a NEW selection of Star Wars-themed charms!
Savi’s Workshop is an immersive experience in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. It’s here that guests can build their very own custom lightsaber with hilts, kyber crystals, and other elements of their choice.
Savi’s Workshop — Handbuilt Lightsabers
When Walt Disney World reopened in July, some attractions remained closed. The Savi’s Workshop building reopened, but the immersive show qualities were removed from the attraction. Guests could buy a lightsaber then enter the workshop to take a look around. It was announced recently that Savi’s will officially reopen on September 20th with some of the immersive qualities we experienced prior to closing. Today, reservations for the Savi’s are available to book on the Disney World website!
Slowly but surely, more of our favorite Disney World activities are returning.

We recently heard about the return of dining at Hollywood & Vine and Cinderella’s Royal Table and now we’re getting news from a galaxy far, far away. Savi’s Workshop is set to reopen in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and we’re getting PUMPED to be able to construct our own lightsaber again!
We’ve been hard at work scoping out all the latest news for you this week. Today we have all the details on the reopening of all the Disney World theme parks and MORE!

We’re live from the grand re-opening of Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World!
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Queue
Shopping is a little different since Disney World re-opened. Some virtual queues have been implemented and social distancing markers are placed everywhere to create distance between guests. Earlier, we saw that The Marketplace Outpost in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge was roped off and only allowing one guest per shop. We headed to The Droid Depot and Savi’s Workshop to see if the hands-on experiences were any different than before. [Read more…]
We’re back exploring Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at the reopening of Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Oga’s Cantina with Modified Seating
It’s not a trip to Batuu without a pit stop at Oga’s Cantina! Disney pre-warned us that the dining experience would be a little different than it was prior to closing and we got to see what that was all about today! [Read more…]
Shopping for souvenirs in Disney World almost seems like a rite of passage for some people. If you don’t come home with a pair of Mickey ears, did you even GO to Disney World?!
Coral Minnie Ears
But some pieces of merchandise are more “rare” than others. Often times you can find Disney parks merchandise online at shopDisney or at your local Disney Store, but other times there are items that can ONLY be found in the parks! [Read more…]
We have to hand it to Disney, they definitely know how to get our attention!
