Our countdown has begun! We’re less than one week away from kicking off the first of two exciting celebration nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios followed by even more Disney After Hours dates at the park. And today, we’re sharing more details about each special experience and a new video on what to expect during a Disney After Hours night at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

On May 1 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we’re celebrating three decades worth of movie magic and super heroic action with the celebration of the park’s 30th anniversary. At the event, you’ll be able to meet Disney and Disney•Pixar pals and Star Wars favorites for special photo opportunities. You’ll also experience little to no-wait on park favorites, including The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, Toy Story Land attractions and more.



There will also be a special encore performance of “Wonderful World of Animation” taking place exclusively for event attendees. And special 30th anniversary merchandise will be available for purchase on May 1 as well as a slew of special anniversary food & beverage items, including Kylo Ren Cupcakes, Incredibles Macarons, Tres Leches Verrine and many more. Sounds great, right? Tickets are now available on our special page.



On May 4, Star Wars fans of all ages won’t want to miss this year’s celebration of May the Fourth at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. During the night, you’ll have the opportunity to encounter Chewbacca with Rey, Kylo Ren with Captain Phasma and more at the park! There will also be themed merchandise and special treats available for purchase. You can grab Your May the Fourth tickets right now.
