Join us for an Expedition on The Opening Of Star Wars: Rise Of The Resistance
Join us on a different kind of Expedition looking at Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This second ride in Galaxy’s Edge is a technical marvel and pushes the boundary of theme park rides forward. Ignite the spark.
WARNING – This video contains full spoilers for the new Rise Of The Resistance ride. Do not watch it if you don’t want to know what happens.
We were lucky enough to ride it twice on opening day even if it did break down on us one of those times while in the queue.

For an opening day it almost went without a hitch. We arrived at Hollywood Studios at 4 am and managed to get off the ride by 8.40 am. We were in boarding group 17 and just as we were about to enter the queue the ride broke down and there was mass confusion in getting fast passes to return later. The ride was not down for too long and we were able to get on the ride fast and grab another boarding time for later on in the day.
By the time we finished our first ride through there were no further boarding passes available for guests by around 9 am. It’s unclear how long they will be using the boarding pass system for. It wasn’t even announced they were using it until today.
Keep an eye out on Disney social media or the My Disney Experience app for updates on availability throughout the day.
