Disney has revealed more details about its theme park projects around the globe and at the D23 Expo Japan on Sunday, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Chairman Bob Chapek, gave us some new details on the upcoming Star Wars themed resort that promises to be ‘Unlike Anything That Exists Today’.
Last summer, Disney announced plans for an immersive Star Wars-inspired resort to be built at Walt Disney World Resort. The company now says that hotel will be “seamlessly connected” to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios set to open in 2019.
This first-of-its-kind resort will combine luxury with complete immersion into an authentic Star Wars story. Guests’ journey through space will start when everyone departs together for a multiday Stars Wars adventure by boarding a starship alive with characters and stories that unfold all around them during a voyage through the galaxy.
At the resort, guests immediately become active citizens of the galaxy and can dress up in the proper attire. Every resort window will also have a view into space. The opportunity for immersion at this resort will also stand out among all Disney resorts around the globe, as it will be seamlessly connected to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, allowing guests a total Star Wars experience.
