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

[AJT607]

It's been a long time since we did the SW Dessert Party. Our last dessert party was actually during the week that SWaGS premiered. My wife asked about doing the party again during our next trip so I have it booked, but I'm trying to make sure I understand all of the changes.

From skimming the thread and being in the parks, I noticed that the Chewy steins have been replaced with Captain Phasma steins. I also know that the party now takes place in the Launch Bay and you are escorted out to a reserved standing area for the fireworks. Are those the only two major changes to the dessert party in the past two years? We had a great time before and are looking forward to trying it again!

It's tables of four so you'll have two tables.

Hi there!

Will the tables be assigned or first come....
There are 5 of us so wondering what the new process will be.

Thanks so much! We will be there July 12th. We met you at the Frozen dessert party awhile back and it was a pleasure. Maybe we will see you again??

Preassigned

Tables default to 4, but they'll seat 5 if that's the party size.

We will be there July 12th. We met you at the Frozen dessert party awhile back and it was a pleasure.

A pleasure to meet me, you must have me mistaken for somebody else. Just kidding, and I do remember you. Too early to know, but I might be there.

As I alluded to a few weeks ago, chairs were added to the party this week. A couple of other changes as well. The menu has changed and a M&G with Kylo Ren just for party guests has been added.

Guests have been pleasantly surprised with the changes at check in, especially the addition of chairs. I would expect a price increase once the current booking cycle ends.

It's a completely new party. Nothing at the party is the same, except for me that is. I would check out the SWaGS dessert party page on MDE once it's updated.

That's bigger news than I expected to hear. I hope someone soon posts about their party experience now that we have all of these changes in place. The meet and greet is an interesting twist. I didn't expect that. When we were there in January, his wait was very low during our party, and Storm Troopers were jokingly attempting to pull people from Chewbacca's line over to Kylo's. Do they close down Kylo's line to non-party guests during this time, or is there another area with another Kylo just for the party attendees?

I’d love to get some details on the new menu. In particular...is the frozen Nutella thing still around?

We will be at the Star Wars Party on 6/26. Hope you are there FastPasser. We will also be at FEA party July 4. Hope to catch you at one of the parties at least. Please keep your fingers crossed that we don’t miss the Show at the Star Wars Party since we got rained out the last time we tried to go for my daughter’s birthday. Very excited to experience the “new and improved” Party.

Very excited about the updates, we are at the party on 29th June

 

[bigbear]

Also excited about the updates. We will be at SW and HEA parties in July

I'm also very curious about the menu change!

Love the idea of chairs. Intrigued by a menu change. Have to admit my DH and I have never been but were intrigued by the photos of what we saw offered (including a few of the savory treats too). Crossing my fingers that the new menu is still as good as it's looked in the pictures.

I'm afraid our trip isn't until September but it looks like we'll be missing you FastPasser. Your help has been amazing (long time lurker, only recent poster). Wishing you all the best!

Do they offer tables of 2, or would another party of 2 be seated with us?

 

[Cluelyss]

Do they close down Kylo's line to non-party guests during this time, or is there another area with another Kylo just for the party attendees?

My guess would be they are using the Chase area for party guests, since that M&G ends at 7.

Dedicated line just for party Guests. Guests are given a M&G time.

is the frozen Nutella thing still around?

Yes

We will be at the Star Wars Party on 6/26. Hope you are there FastPasser.

Maybe, but as of right now, no.

We will also be at FEA party July 4. Hope to catch you at one of the parties at least.

Different department does the HEA parties.

fingers crossed that we don’t miss the Show at the Star Wars Party since we got rained out the last time we tried to go for my daughter’s birthday.

That seldom happens, you should be fine.

our trip isn't until September but it looks like we'll be missing you FastPasser.

Probably, but who knows.

Your help has been amazing. Wishing you all the best!

Thank you, my pleasure.

It will depend on the number of Guests. If they can, they will give parties of less than 4 their own table. Last night was a good example. Because there were 15 fewer guests, every party had their own table and didn't have to share.

My guess would be they are using the Chase area for party guests, since that M&G ends at 7.

Yup

Fastpasser we will be at the Frozen party on july 4 not the one at MK. We figured we would get more bang for our buck at Illuminations and July 4 fireworks at Epcot than at MK.

Might be, and will try to be, but the schedule isn't out yet.

If I were to do a party, that would be the one for me, assuming it's the outdoor version.

I can't wait to hear about the menu changes. My dh who doesn't even like Star Wars wants to do this party again so I hope they still have the savory options since that is what he loved so much.

Still holding my breath for the new booking cycle...

The savory items have changed, and I may be wrong because I'm not really paying attention to what's there, but it appears that they have increased the offerings.
