question about jedi training

[*jovi_girl*]

just a few questions...

firstly, is this an all year round thing for the kids to do?
how many times a day do they do it
do i have to book and if so, how do i book?

do the kids get to participate and if so, how do they get chosen, is it just random?

really wanna do this cos my boys are starwars mad

thanks

Hi

I have just come back from Disney and my three children did the Jedi Training. It is an all year round show but is subject to the weather as it is outdoors (ie if it is raining they will cancel). We got to the park at about 8:30 before the park had opened and once allowed through the gate there was a cast member holding up a sign showing you where to go to sign up. You need to get there early because the places do fill up very quick, all your children need to be with you when you sign up, so don't send them off to que for anything else!

I was very fortunate because it was a rainy day when I went to Hollywood Studios and a lot of people dropped out because of the weather, the show before ours was cancelled but ours went ahead and the children loved every minute of it and have been bragging to all their friends at school about how they defeated Darth Vader!

I hope you enjoy your experience!

Sorry, I forgot to say when you book up, you are given a time slot when to come back for your show, I don't know how many they do a day but I expect it is every hour - I expect someone else can tell you more.

Our ds did this a few days ago. You need to get to the park 30 minutes before opening as thats when they start queing
When you get through the ticket gate you will see a large blue building on your left, turn down that street, don't go towards the Hat, from there you will be taken to the registration point.
Our ds got in on the first show, which was 9.20am, the one after that was 10.10am, so i think they must be more regular than one an hour, but they probably only do a few shows in the morning and then more in the afternoon.
Have fun x

Hi I seem to remember it being 12 yrs, but can't remember if it includes 12 yr olds, or is under 12 yrs old.
My twins did it this summer and they are 11 - they were considerably older than the other kids in their group, who I'd say mainly ranged from about 4-8 yrs old.
There's no charge and, if you have a photopass, the photos taken by the photopass photographer can be added to your photopass free of charge!
You need to go to the photo shop (near the entrance) and present your photocard.
The kids all get presented with a certificate too.
