Big news has come our way this morning about a change coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios FastPass tiers. Beginning August 29th rides at Hollywood Studios will become a tier 1 FastPass, and the shows will become a tier 2.

What this means is  Slinky Dog Dash, Alien Swirling Saucers, Toy Story Mania, Tower of Terror, and Rock n Roller Coaster will all be in the same tier and you’ll only be able to choose one. The Star Wars rides will not have an option for FastPass when they open so we aren’t sure where they will end up. We can only assume when FastPass opens for them they will be in tier one as well.

Star Tours and Fantasmic are currently not showing on either tier one or two at this time.

  1. This must be an error. How can every ride be a Tier 1? Why would anyone go to this park (other than the obvious Star Wars land) and not be able to FP more than one ride. If true Disney has really lost its mind.

  2. Sure… make it more difficult for park visitors to obtain Fastpass options for popular attractions. This oesn’t make any sense…. as I thought the purpose of FP was to enable guests to access these attractions with little to no wait time? By doing this tier, it limits FP reservation opportunities. Not so smart, Disney.

  3. This makes absolutely no sense. It basically means you pay for admission and then you can only get a fast pass for 1 ride. What happened to incentivizing Passholders and resort guests?

  4. I would think that when the new Star Wars rides (2 of them) finally open, the new Star Wars rides should be alone as tier 1 options (choosing only 1), all other rides should move down to two. Kind of like what has happened at Animal Kingdom when FOP and Navi River opened.
