Rise of the Resistance Opens Tomorrow at Walt Disney World

This is the ride you are looking for! Earlier this year Disney opened their incredibly immersive Galaxy's Edge, welcoming theme park and Star Wars fans alike to the outpost world of Batuu. Tomorrow, the land will be complete as the highly anticipated Rise of the Resistance opens at Disney's Hollywood Studios.





It's been called the most ambitious ride that Disney Imagineering have ever created. Whilst Smuggler's Run gave fans the chance to fly the iconic Millennium Falcon, it's long been teased that Rise of the Resistance is the true crown jewel of Galaxy's Edge. And now fans will be able to experience it for themselves, joining the heroes of the Resistance in their fight against the First Order when the ride opens tomorrow.







Before they come face-to-face with Kylo Ren, Disney invites fans to watch the dedication ceremony of the new attraction in a live stream later today:

As noted above, the live stream takes place at 23:55 GMT, which works out as 18:55 ET and 15:55 PT respectively.









You will be able to check out the live stream directly on YouTube and on this page once it goes live;









In a press release for the attraction, Disney said:

Judging by the new pictures released today the ride truly is unprecedented in terms of scale, bringing guests face-to-face not only with Supreme Leader Kylo Ren, but TIE Fighters, AT-ATs, and an army of fifty Stormtroopers as they desperately try to escape from the First Order.







The images above actually remind me a little of the trackless Ratatouille ride at Disney Studios in Paris. That ride was extremely innovative, exhilarating, and just a lot of fun when I visited the park a few years ago, and the scale on Rise of the Resistance looks to have taken it to the next level. If it's anything to go by, then Star Wars and theme park fans are in for an incredible experience tomorrow.



About Galaxy's Edge:

Of course, Hollywood Studios is just one of the locations where fans can experience Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. Rise of the Resistance will be coming to California's Disneyland Resort on January 17, 2020.



Bright suns everyone!
