Earlier opening for HS in August

[benatkins10]

Hoping this will reduce crowds a little at Animal Kingdom for back of August too for when we are there.

Got my email from the Dibb alert I had set up. Very happy with this development. Can’t wait for the 00.30 closing night

What will this mean for signing up for Jedi training? Can people sign up during EMH and if so, what time do we therefore need to be there to be sure we will get a spot? When opening was 9.00, I figured we would get to the gates around 8.30. Then when it changed to 8.00, I thought, ok, 7.40 arrival, but I missed the fact that it was also EMH from 7.00am. We are onsite so can use EMH, but I think my family might have some kind of malfunction if I try to get them there for 6.40am! Any advice, please? Jedi training is a must for my DS. We can't pick a different day, as it looks as if it is 7.00am EMH at Hollywood Studios every day of our holiday.

For my dates in August it looks like standard hours are 8am-10.30pm with early magic hours every day 7am-8am and then on Fridays it has evening hours 10.30pm till 00.30am.

Do you think you could watch the first Fantasmic show and be out in time to watch Star Wars fireworks?

Yes but you wont get the prime spots. I would do it though.

Am I right though, we haven't heard anything about where the new TSL rides will be in the FPass tiers?

And more to the point, will I be able to book a FPass for ToT AND R&R

The 3 Toy Story land rides will be Tier 1 and the remaining attractions will all be Tier two.

I know you can sign up in EMH, what I'm not sure is whether they let you through the gates before opening in EMH. Maybe not relevant for you now, but on a normal opening day they start letting you through the gates at 8.30, people going to rides are held at the top of Hollywood Boulevard but you can go straight to Jedi Training sign up then - we got to the gates at 8, and were back waiting at the ropes for opening by 8.50
