**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[FastPasser.]

That is my question too, as I thought that throughout December (11/7-12/31) that JBJB would be showing. So with all of the dates for SWAG during December (12/15 and after 12/17) at like 9 or 10 pm (even on park days when the hours are listed as closing at 8 or 9pm) does this mean that JBJB is only primarily in November and will end on 12/15? Or will they still have the SWAG fireworks and alternate the dessert parties when JBJB shows? So will the SWAG event time mean a SWAG dessert party on those nights or will they just have the fireworks and JBJB earlier with a dessert party? (Maybe we won't know for sure until JBJB times are released)

While the dates and times for all the SWaGS and JBJB shows have all been released, no info for either party has been, so the puzzle can't be put together without those pieces.

We can also make some accurate assumptions as to when the JBJB party will take place in Nov. and early Dec, but I'm having a problem filling in the blanks regarding the last two weeks in Dec.

If the schedule currently shown on The HUB is correct, SWaGs will stop being performed on Nov. 8th and resume on Dec. 15th. JBJB will begin on Nov. 9th and will be performed every night in Dec. except for the 16th when Galactic Nights is expected to take place.

ETA, I had JBJB starting on Dec 9th, typo, it's Nov 9th

Sorry if this was already answered earlier, but what is "THE HUB"?

It's the Disney cast member and selected users website.

I'm strictly a wine drinker and paying $10 plus dollars for a glass of wine at WDW kills me because I know full well what it costs.

I tòtally agree!

I'm a mostly wine drinker, probably because I drink mostly at home and it is a lot easier to pour a glass than mix a drink...lol...so at Disney or when out places, I usually go with mixed drinks - not that they are worth the $12.50 price tag, either - but the ones at the party weren't necessarily ones I would choose, so I'm thinking I'd go wine there now that it's an option for the future.

Not sure if this is the proper thread to ask. But has anyone heard if Disney will be doing something similar for the release of The last Jedi, where you purchased a movie ticket and admission to DHS for around $100 and there was an after party there after the movie? It may have been something that was only for The force awakens since it was the first movie in the new trilogy but I think it would be a big success as when I went to the first one it was sold out and crowded.

It looks like they will be doing Star Wars Galactic Nights on Saturday Dec 16th. The park is closing earlier and SWaGS is returning on the 15th but dark on the 16th. I'm not sure if they will add the movie itself, 2 years ago it was a bit of a problem coordinating the movie plus party

I've been in and out of the house all day so not sure if this has already been announced but JBJB is at 6:30pm and SWaGS is at 9pm or 10pm starting Dec. 15th. Again Dec 16th is dark for both shows (Galactic Nights special ticketed event possible) So both shows will be performed. I assume that the only one to have a dessert party associated with it will be JBJB like last year

Yeah I can easily imagine how hectic it was planning that. I did an early showing at about 6 so that I would have plenty of time in the park, but it didn't make much sense to me the people who had a 8 or 9 showing because they had such limited time in the park. Oh well I guess, we'll have to wait and see i suppose.

 

[FastPasser.]

not sure if this has already been announced but JBJB is at 6:30pm

And that's the part I'm having an issue with which I alluded to in a previous post. It just seems so early for a dessert party. Why not have SWaGS at 10pm on both weeks?

 

[Linda67]

Oh well, looks like I'm not going to see the show during our November trip. Shame they aren't running both on alternate nights

So for the end of December dates, if the JBJB party would start at 6:30 pm would the dessert party be at 5:00 pm? That seems kind of early for a dessert party... and for a projection show, as is it dark enough? Though it would leave a lot of time between JBJB and SWAGS for people who are park hopping .....

My point exactly.

Thinking of doing the party that night. Does this offer anything special?

Force Friday is just when they release new SW toys-pretty much those for The Last Jedi. Nothing special at parks, just stores everywhere!

Interesting, as last year SWAGS played first, then JBJB. I wonder if that means the SW party will return once they start offering both shows? Or if there will be a JBJB dessert party at all? What time is JBJB showing up until December 15?

I hope you really loved those heaters because they were a huge pain to put there. They were brought over every cold night by an outside source. The delivery person had to be met backstage by a CM, load the heaters on a large wagon, escort the wagon through a busy park, set them up and repeat in reverse at the end of the party.For those that will have one or two beers or wines, at Disney prices, it pretty much covers the increase.In the past whenever they've added seating, they've also added other stuff, so the increase would be more than $10. It would have been at least $20. But I don't see how it would be possible to add seating to the existing venue without a drastic reduction in the number of guests, which is what they had to do at the FEA party at Epcot.

Just curious if you took any photos that included the event staff, not the servers?

Wow, that sounds like a ton of work with the heaters!!! But yes...they were very much appreciated and liked by our family.

Bummer about the seating...it really would be awesome.

And no, I looked through the pics from the party...unfortunately no pics of any event staff.

Maybe they'll have the dessert party inside disney jr? Sunset is at 5:30pm the last 2 weeks of December

8pm until December 14th. Then goes to 6:30pm
Remember last year they added swags as an addition, it wasn't planned in advance, jbjb was already on the schedule, dessert parties were booked so they had to add swags before jbjb

They'll do that only if it's going to rain. Had to do it once or twice last year and it's nowhere near as nice as having it in the courtyard. It's not the venue that I'm questioning, but if JBJB is at 6:30, guests will have to arrive between 4:30 and 5 for the party. It's just a departure from the norm.
