Disney World announced today that the incredibly popular Star Wars: Rise of The Resistance attraction will be moving to standby only on Sept. 23.
Here is the official announcement:
We know our guests love choice and flexibility when planning their time in a theme park—which is why, starting Sept. 23, we will pause the use of virtual queue for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, and guests at Disney’s Hollywood Studios may experience this incredible attraction using a traditional standby queue for the first time since it opened in 2019.
Disney also mentions that guests should check the My Disney Experience app for the latest on how they’re using virtual queues across Walt Disney World Resort including its potential use at Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at a later date, or from time to time.
There was no mention of Disneyland’s version of the attraction switching to standby only at this time.
