Disney4me Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Today, my friends… we made it behind THIS Wall. Entrance to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Hollywood Studios THIS is the entrance to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!!! As guests at a special Walt Disney World media event, we were able to enter the land which will open to guests on August 29, 2019! Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge — LIVE YOUR ADVENTURE! Though pictures were, understandably, not permitted, we’d love to share our thoughts about our very first steps on the planet Batuu… Black Spire Outpost on Batuu ©Disney/Lucasfilm Our very first thought? WOW, you guys… IT’S GOING TO BE INCREDIBLE. Our group entered by the Grand Avenue entrance and directly into the outskirts of the village that makes up Black Spire Outpost.

Lanterns have been installed and they are insanely well themed — they are tall and green, but the main impression is that they look like they are hundreds of years old.

Rise of the Resistance is going to be MASSIVE. The best words to describe it might be that it was like walking in front of an IMAX screen, it’s just HUGE.

We were told that the land itself (as we can understand even more now) will be like an attraction in and of itself because it’s so detailed. Though we entered via Grand Avenue, we were informed that the view from Toy Story Land will be a little more wide-scale — like 360 degrees (which is hard to believe, because our vantage point was already insanely cool). We were also informed that pretty much the only difference between Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Hollywood Studios in comparison to Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland (which will open first on May 31, 2019) are the entrances into the land.
