Military Families Get to Check Out Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Walt Disney World

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, located within Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World, is an amazing place to visit! Disney has brought a variety of VIP guests in to experience the land and some of guests who were among the first to experience the new, immersive land were five members of America’s armed forces and their families. Between all of the families the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard were represented. These special guests were surprised on August 27th, 2019, a couple days ahead of the official opening, with a preview.

 

Check out this great video below:

According to Disney Parks Blog, “hosted personally by Disney Parks, Experience and Consumer Products Chairman Bob Chapek, the five families had the opportunity to crew the most famous of all Star Wars starships while enjoying Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, assemble droids and lightsabers, shop the marketplace and wash the experience down with a cold blue milk.

We are so glad that these families had the chance to spend time together in appreciation of their service.

About Christy Caby

I am a diehard Disney fanatic! I fell in love with all things Disney from an early age and that only increased once I first visited Walt Disney World! It led me to complete a yearlong Disney College Program working at merchandise locations within Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Disney-MGM Studios at that time) and I worked for Disney Parks & Resorts Technology in Project/Program Management. Now I get to write about Disney and help others plan their magical vacations! Disney holds a special place in the hearts of my entire family as my husband proposed there, we honeymooned there, took trips while pregnant with each of my boys and have visited with them many, many times from 8 weeks old through now. One of my favorite memories from each trip is always the look on my kids’ faces the first time they see the castle. I’d love to help you plan your magical vacation!
