Savi’s Workshop Handbuilt Lightsabers Reopening September 20th at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

    Disney has just announced that Savi’s Workshop will be reopening September 20th at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

    Savi’s Workshop is packed with unusual parts and whimsical pieces collected from the far reaches of the galaxy. Under the mystical Gatherers’ guidance, you construct a one-of-a-kind lightsaber and bring it to life through the power of a kyber crystal. You can build your lightsaber along one of the following themes: 

    • Peace and Justice – Utilize salvaged scraps of fallen Jedi temples and crashed starships in Republic-era lightsaber designs that honor the galaxy’s former guardians.
    • Power and Control – Originally forged by warriors from the dark side, objects used in this lightsaber style are rumored remnants from the Sith home world and abandoned temples.
    • Elemental Nature – Craft a lightsaber from special components born from the Force, such as Brylark trees, Cartusion whale bones or Rancor teeth.
    • Protection and Defense – Incorporate hilt materials bearing mysterious motifs and inscriptions that reconnect a lightsaber’s wielder with the ancient wellspring of the Force.

    For those who may have visited the shop in the past, you’ll notice the experience will be slightly adjusted. For instance, capacity will be reduced to allow for physical distancing between guests in accordance with the park’s guidelines during its phased reopening. 

    Advanced reservations (highly recommended) for Savi’s Workshop will open Sept. 16 via Disneyworld.com or the My Disney Experience mobile app; you can also stop by the shop to check for walk-up availability on the day of your visit. You must have a valid Disney Parks Pass reservation for Disney’s Hollywood Studios prior to making a reservation for Savi’s Workshop. 

    During the first weeks of the phased reopening of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Savi’s Workshop was utilized as a retail location without the immersive experience originally intended for the space.

    Here’s a look back at what the experience was like when Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge debuted in 2019.

    1. Big question: will it reopen with the very talented and hard working EQUITY actors or the less talented and less paid attractions hosts?

    2. Is the experience(show) that goes along with building it which makes it so amazing going to be the same as before just with less people, or will it be unfortunately different
