Sections of backstage have been opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to create more space for the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run physically-distanced queue in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
The first backstage area open is right next to the Millennium Falcon.
When we were there, the wait time for Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run was 110 minutes.
Another area was open next to First Order Cargo.
The line ended just past this area.
Social distancing markers continue into the backstage area.
The line moved fairly quickly, so we weren’t back there for very long.
The backstage area further along in the queue is right after you loop around the Falcon itself.
Soon after we arrived, the backstage doors were closed.
Wait times have been getting longer these past few weeks, though Bob Chapek recently stated Walt Disney World theme parks remain at 25% capacity. We will continue to keep an eye on crowding and wait times at all four theme parks.
The fired Cast Members become Guests and Guests are queuing in the backstage areas. Circle of life!
