Went to dessert party last night. Checked into Launch Bay at 7:30 pm. Lots of interaction with Jawas, and Storm troopers We had a great time at the dessert party, and we really enjoyed the food and drinks, especially the frozen Nutella.
The only thing missing were chairs at the tables. We knew there would be no seating, but after a long day at the parks, and considering we would also be standing for the fireworks, some chairs would have been nice. When we headed outside to the viewing area, the space reserved for individuals with wheelchairs/scooters was nearly full; we were in the row directly behind them. Unfortunatley there happened to be quite a few very tall people standing in wheelchair section, and we had to reposition ourselves several times to get a decent view. Myself and DD are petite, and my 9 year old DGS was not invited into the handicap section; the CMs only invited younger children to enter. There were also some sort of tall black metal towers positioned on the stage directly in front of us that partially obstructed some of the projections on the center of the building. While we had a decent view, it was not a perfect view. DD was a little disappointed with our location after noticing the hundreds of people standing in the viewing area in front of us, but I explained that if we were too close, we would not see all of the projections, etc.
We thought the show was good; it was a unique immersive Star Wars experience. We loved the dessert party, and I was happy to avoid staking out a spot a hour before the show, so it was all good. A big thank you to all the Disers here who were so helpful leading up to our dessert party night.
Ugh, I did not realize this was standing only, I may have to rethink this now.
