The force is strong at Walt Disney World with exciting new additions to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. It is the park to visit for all things Star Wars! The youngest guests can emerge themselves into the galaxy with this interactive experience – Star Wars Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple.
Not only is there a new set in front of Star Tours attraction, but new villains too! Young Jedi’s learn how to use the force – with wielding lightsabers – to fight the Dark Side. The new recruits are then challenged by Darth Vader himself, and the newest member – the Seventh Sister (Star Wars Rebels).
Check out this video below from part of the new Star Wars Jedi Training show!
There are multiple time slots to select for Jedi Training at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, however I highly recommend visiting the park upon opening because those slots fill up quickly. I was so excited that a few time slots were still available during last Friday’s media event! I was able to sign both boys up for the fun adventure. They are 4 and 7 and just had to answer a few questions pertaining to following directions to be apart of the event.
What did they think of the experience? They loved it! It was all they talked about for the duration of the day. The training experience lasted roughly 20 minutes or so, however you must check-in and be ready 30 minutes prior to your sign-up time. Both boys had an opportunity to duel Darth Vader in a lightsaber showdown, and received a certificate for their job well done.
A Hollywood Studios photographer is on site to snap pictures of the experience too! The Star Wars Jedi Training experience is completely free for kids only, however pictures are an additional cost.
Can adults battle the Dark Side during Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple? During the press event, that was discussed and encouraged as a kids-only special event.
The Star Wars Jedi Training experience comes highly recommend from this Disney mom!

My son is obsessed with Star Wars so he is dying to see this show! I don’t know if the show at Disneyland is the same or not but he’s always loved watching it from afar {he was too scared to get close before} and now he wants to go back and see it again!

I’ve always loved that they have an attraction similar at DisneyLand and it’s great to see it being incorporated at Hollywood Studios. Every little boy’s dream!

When my boys were a bit younger, this was their FAVORITE thing to do at MGM. Until it was the year the show got canceled because of rain and they were really sad.
