Disneyland Releases Official Virtual Queue Boarding Group Procedures for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Grand Opening



Here’s how to make the most out of your visit to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and planning tips for the highly anticipated opening of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance on Jan. 17 at Disneyland park:

1. Download the official Disneyland mobile app
First things first. The Disneyland app allows you to navigate that land and even utilize the mobile ordering feature at select dining locations when you are in the land. Be sure to download before you go!

2. Plan around your attraction experience
Starting Jan. 17 as needed, a virtual queue for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance may be implemented to help deliver the best possible guest experience, allowing guests to explore other areas of the park while waiting for their turn to ride. The Disneyland app will have a dedicated module, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance – Access by Boarding Group, available from the main page. Here’s how it will work:
  • Request to join a boarding group to ride the attraction, once you have entered Disneyland park. The virtual queue will not be available until published park opening hours.
  • Boarding groups will be sent a push notification when it is their turn to enter the attraction queue and you can monitor status of boarding groups from the app.
  • There also will be the ability to join a boarding group from select locations inside Disneyland park, if you are not using the app. The boarding group is tied to admission that will be scanned upon entry of the attraction.
  • Signage throughout the park will also display boarding group status.
  • Admission into Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance will be subject to capacity, and having an assigned boarding group will not guarantee entrance to the attraction.
 
tbh, it all depends where youre flying in from
not all airlines will fly into LB or even JW, and even if they do it probably costs a bit more to do so ( well those outside the WC region)
 
gon be on the hunt for these, supposedly in select groceries now

Think Disneyland ticket prices are high? Here’s why the theme park is underpriced

After years of seemingly endless ticket price increases, it seems almost preposterous to even ask the question: Is Disneyland underpriced?

Data analysis shows that Disneyland and other Southern California theme parks offer a more affordable entertainment value when compared to live concerts, film and music festivals, Broadway shows and sporting events.

How do you compare a Lakers game to a Lady Gaga concert to a “Hamilton” performance to a day at Disneyland? We calculated the estimated cost per hour of each type of entertainment to come up with an apples-to-apples comparison.


A full day at Disneyland lasts an average of 15 hours compared to a 3-hour experience at a typical professional sporting event, live music concert or Broadway show. That makes the $9 cost per hour for a visit to Disneyland much lower than the Lakers ($47 per hour), Lady Gaga ($90 per hour) or “Hamilton” ($113 per hour), rounding to the nearest dollar.

Theme parks offer more entertainment than any one person can squeeze into a single day. Rides, shows, music, parades, fireworks and character encounters are all included in the price of admission. Disneyland even offers a shortened version of the “Frozen” Broadway show now playing at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles.
Theme parks dominate the lower rung of our price comparison chart when costs are calculated by the hour. Disney California Adventure, which is typically open fewer hours per day than Disneyland, costs an estimated $10 per hour. Universal Studios Hollywood is slightly higher at $15 per hour with Six Flags Magic Mountain and Legoland California at $12 per hour and SeaWorld San Diego at $10 per hour. Knott’s Berry Farm is the most affordable major Southern California theme park at $8 per hour, slightly less than Disneyland.




Among the major sports leagues, Baseball is the closest competitor to theme parks when it comes to hourly price comparisons. The average Major League Baseball game costs $11 per hour with the Angels ($10 per hour) slightly lower and the Dodgers ($14 per hour) just a bit higher.

The Ducks ($20 per hour) and Kings ($28 per hour) fall on either side of the National Hockey League average of $25 per hour. The Clippers ($29 per hour) and Lakers ($47 per hour) were both higher than the National Basketball Association average of $25 per hour. The same goes for the Rams ($39 per hour) and Chargers ($55 per hour) compared to the National Football League average of $34 per hour. Rams and Chargers prices are expected to change this year when both teams move into the new SoFi Stadium in Inglewood.

The average live music concert ($33 per hour) costs three times more than Disneyland. The top national concert draws are off the charts: Aerosmith ($68 per hour), Lady Gaga ($90 per hour) and Bruce Springsteen ($167 per hour).

A Broadway show ($41 per hour) costs four times as much as Disneyland. Disney’s Broadway productions are even higher: “Frozen” ($48 per hour), “Aladdin” ($53 per hour) and “Lion King” ($76 per hour). Broadway’s top shelf is still reserved for “Hamilton” at $113 per hour.

Theme parks clearly benefit from a longer running time than other entertainment options. But how do longer events compare?

The 11-day Sundance Film Festival in Utah will run you $40 per hour, but to recoup that entertainment value you’d have to sit through a lot of movies in an endless string of darkened theaters. The 3-day Coachella festival in Indio costs $11 per hour with dozens of musical acts performing daily on multiple stages. The 5-day Comic-Con International expo in San Diego is even more affordable at $7 per hour with pop culture panels and discussions taking over the San Diego Convention Center.

The best entertainment deal still remains the Hollywood movie blockbuster, which typically clocks in at around 2 hours with previews. At $5 per hour, movies remain the lowest priced option on the entertainment value comparison chart.

Of course, not everyone stays at a theme park from opening to close. The same holds true for sporting events, music festivals or any entertainment. But clearly theme parks benefit from a longer operating day.
Naturally, prices vary widely for any type of entertainment. Bargain hunters can find deals and VIPs can splurge on extras. But to make a fair comparison, we used average and regular admission ticket prices.
Team Marketing Report estimates the NFL had the highest average ticket price at $102 among major U.S. sports, with the NHL at $76, NBA at $74 and MLB at $33.

Pollstar estimates the average 2019 concert ticket price in North America was $100. The top 3 average ticket prices for 2019 concerts were $506 for “Springsteen on Broadway,” $270 for Lady Gaga in Las Vegas and $205 for Aerosmith, according to Pollstar.

The Broadway League estimates average paid admission during the 2018-19 season was $124 for a Broadway show in New York City. Disney’s Broadway shows checked in at $160 for “Aladdin,” $144 for “Frozen” and $229 for “Lion King,” according to the Broadway League. “Hamilton” tops them all at $339.

Coachella tickets cost $429 for the 3-day festival. The all-access Sundance Film Festival Express Pass will set you back $7,500 for the full 11-day fest. Comic Con tickets cost $69 daily on the longest days of the convention. The average U.S. movie ticket price topped $9 in 2018, according to the National Association of Theater Owners.

Theme parks offer variable pricing and discounts, but we went with the regular or front gate rate to keep the comparisons fair. Disneyland and Disney California Adventure offer a $129 “regular” ticket. Universal Studios Hollywood has a $139 Anytime Admission. Legoland California ($95), SeaWorld San Diego ($94) and Six Flags Magic Mountain ($93) all list similar front gate rates while Knott’s Berry Farm’s is lower at $84.
