Hollywood Studios Attractions

O N E P A G E G U I D E HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS ATTRACTIONS TulipAndSnowflake.com HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD! Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge will be arriving at Disney’s Hollywood Studios soon, but there are plenty of attractions to enjoy and make this a full-day park in the meantime. This one-page guide provides information to help you decide which attractions are right for your family, which ones require advanced planning or FastPass reservations, and what time of day you might want to enjoy each one. In addition to basic facts like minimum height requirements and FastPass availability, this guide indicates whether the queue and the attraction itself are indoors, outside, or covered. Use this information to determine which rides should be avoided in the afternoon heat and rain. Note that outdoor attractions will close during thunderstorms and may close during rain. Queue interest prepares you for boredom and help you decide which attractions you want to FastPass or only attempt with a short posted wait time to avoid a boring line. Wait indicators give you an idea of the line length that these attractions draw. The attraction types and descriptions provide a basic description of each attraction, how your family might be split up, and just how comfortable those theater seats may (or may not!) be. This guide does not include character meetings. Check the Times Guide in the park for character locations and meeting availability times. Some characters have elaborate indoor greeting locations (like Mickey and Minnie) while others informally meet outside (like Donald Duck and Chip ‘n Dale). Okay, let’s start planning your Hollywood Studios park day!
