If you are a Star Wars fan, then Disney’s Hollywood Studios is definitely the place to be in 2017.   The theme park continues to bulk out its Star Wars attractions and shows. From amazing stage shows, to evening fireworks displays, to meet and greets with your favorite Star Wars characters, there’s no shortage of offerings to please fans both young and old.  To keep us straight, Disney recently released a re-cap on all of the fantastic Star Wars based attractions and activities that you’ll currently find at Walt Disney World.  So make a note and be sure to add your favorites to you Disney must-do list.

Let’s start with Star Wars Launch Bay- This delightful building devoted completely to the franchise is a treasure trove of exhibits, memorabilia, interactive displays and is even home to some of your favorite characters.

Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll find here:

• NEW! Meet BB-8 – Starting this April, guests will board a Resistance freighter where this much loved droid from Star Wars:The Force Awakens will be holding court. 
• Other Special Character Meet and Greets: In addition guests also have the opportunity to square off against the formidable Kylo Ren or head to a makeshift Rebel Base where you’ll meet everyone’s favorite co-pilot Chewbacca.
• Launch Bay Theater – Here fans will find a short video where the directors, producers, writers, Imagineers and Crew Members discuss the steps involved in bringing the Star Wars sage to life.
• Museum and Galleries –  Have your cameras at the ready, as here you’ll find replicas and memorabilia from the films.
• The Cantina – Elements from the famous Cantina scene in the original film are on display including the holochess game table.
• Launch Bay Cargo – Your one-stop-shop for  Star Wars merchandise, including original artwork and collector’s items that you won’t find anywhere else.

In addition to the Launch Bay a handful of other intergalactic offerings await including:

Star Tours – The Adventures Continue – The famous motion simulator experience that allows you to explore space with some of your favorite Star Wars friends as you revisit several of the key locations found in the films both new and old.  New scenes from “Star Wars: Episode VIII” will also be added later in 2017.
