Disneys Star Wars-themed lands at its California and Florida resorts now have opening seasons.
Star Wars: Galaxys Edge will open first at Disneyland in Anaheim in the summer of 2019, followed by a late autumn opening for the one at Disneys Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando.
No other details were released.
The 14-acre themed areas will represent a location on a planet called Batuu, which the company previously called a remote outpost on the galaxys edge that was once a busy crossroads along the old sub-lightspeed trade routes.(continued)

“Extraordinarily unlikely.”
Please cut it out with the doses of reality :-).
$100 + to enter the park. Hundreds more for hotel and car for those not nearby.
I live less then 40 miles away but have never been there. I hate crowds, long lines, the hot weather and the cost.
I’d rather be fishing.
No thanks, Disney RAT, and SJW, white male hating, Kathleen Kennedy have killed Star Wars.
Our entire family of former die-hard Star Wars fans are done. We have no intention of seeing any ersatz SW, including the disastrous:
"SOYLO, a SOY WAR Story"
Star Wars is dead, Disney Rat and SJW, white male hating feminazi Kathleen Kennedy killed it!
It’s ALWAYS Fun. If they have it, try the braised pork belly that the Brazil booth sets up.
My favorite is always the cheese soup from Canada.
After all you can never pay to much for that wonderful Disney experience of over crowded parks, long lines and crappy over priced fare. There is nothing Mickey Mouse about the growth of Disney greed since Walt passed, then again considering Walt's attitude about his employees, instead of spinning in his grave he just might be smiling with admiration.
My favorite is always the cheese soup from Canada.
I'll be on the Disney Dining Plan, so I'll have 12 snack credits for the 6 nights I'm there. All the dishes at the Epcot food booths cost 1 snack credit each, and I'm spending two days at Epcot.
I suspect I'll put on a few pounds....
Pansexual, I think not...he was drooling all over Princess Leia in Empire and Han was threatened by it.

every day over 10,000 kids go to disneyland and have the time of their lives. Not taking your grandkids just makes more room for others from all over the world.
Yes, we quit getting the dining plan, and just started eating two meals a day with liberal snacking during the day.
WE did gain wait on the plan indeed.
Thanks for the pic of the soup. Hope to get some very soon!
Yeah, it was tough eating lobster or a porterhouse every night.
It was too much food, though. I'm just doing the regular dining plan this time.
^^This^^.
If you go grumpy (not Grumpy!) with a chip on your shoulder, you’re going to have a bad time.
Just ask my wife. She went with he parents and sister when she was a teen and had just broken up with a boy friend. When the opportunity came to go with me, my cousin, and his wife and kids, she was dubious, remembering she’d had a bad time but forgetting why. She had brought the bad time with her.
That trip was my fourth, and each time better in some way than the last. The first time I was 8, and enthralled; the second, 32, reliving my childhood and free to wander at will; the third, 41 and traveling with the cousin and (then) two children, seeing it through their eyes; and the last, at 51, with two (now) teens and two new kids and my wife, and all even better!
I hope to do it again in 2020; that there’s good weather all week (yes, a week!); and that we don’t have too much of a wait to get into the Star Wars area.
My 20 year-old daughters just got back from three days at Disney Land with a friend. They said the hotel (3 nights) and airfare (from Seattle) was $309!
They got a “fast pass” - lets them schedule their rides and go to the front of the line. I think for the three days that was another $360. But, it’s their money and they have a lot of fun there. I think this is their second time there in as many years.
The family went to Disney World years ago when they were in second ?) grade. They still remember it. My favorite part was at the President’s Hall. My one daughter is watching, leans over to me and says “I didn’t know all of the presidents were still alive!”
“Oh no honey. Well, some of them still are - but those are all just robots up on the stage.”
Watching for a little bit more, and she leans over again while Lincoln is speaking. He is holding perhaps a book or something.
“He needs notes to speak from - ‘cuz he’s only a robot.”
REALLY fun to go see someplace like Disney through the eyes of a child.
“I hope to do it again in 2020; that theres good weather all week (yes, a week!); and that we dont have too much of a wait to get into the Star Wars area.”
Only a week!!?!?!?
Piker! We usually stay two. :)
DVC is a wonderful thing. Between that, and, getting an Annual pass, we have a VERY good time. We do take days off during that time, and, just hang out at the pool. We’ll also pop into a park for dinner but not do anything else while there.
Time has not permitted us to do that the last few years, but, once I retire, we plan on visiting more. Our ultimate goal is to sail to Hawaii and stay for a month at the Disney Resort there.
Fast pass is free. No extra cost. Just a little planning.
My first time was one day; the second through fourth were four days each.
I think five is good. I have less love for the Animal Kingdom, and could get by with a half day there. So:
—Two days MK
—1.5 for H-wood, including SW YAY!
—1 for EPCOT
—.5 for AK, mostly to get on the Mt Everest coaster.
Bearing in mind that with enough sustenance and pool time in the evening, a “day” is 12 to 14 hours :D
My last trip in 2015 cost $2800.
Four? five? nights in the “value” resorts
Four days in parks
Meal/snack plan
For two adults and two kids under 10.
NOT counting gas/motels driving down and back...
I hope to do the next one “right”.
-Not the most luxe resort, but...eh, maybe up a level from the “value” which was pretty good!
-Flying down and back.
-Five days in parks. See elsewhere in thread for details.
-Meal plans RAWK! No reason to buy foods there ever (unless you really want stuff that’s off-plan, like the giant lollipops. One of my guys wanted one but made do with the smaller size that was in-plan.)
-Making sure to avoid gay days or whatever :p (this was unheard of my first three trips and avoided successfully on the fourth)
And to all the grumpy get-off-my-lawners out there...stay away then, your loss, our gain!
