Disney Photopass service provides countless Walt Disney World Guests with unique ways to capture the memories of their vacation. It’s a valuable tool that helps you collect and organize ride photos, character meet-and-greets, and signature images captured by on-property photographers (such as shots in front of Cinderella Castle). Photopass photographers are often stationed throughout the various Disney Parks, looking for unique opportunities (and great shots) to enhance your vacation memories.

The first offering is the new Holopuck Magic Shots. Photopass photographers walking around Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will have unique holopucks that they carry around. When posing for the photo, Guests hold the puck in their hands and look down at it. When captured, the photograph will display a unique Star Wars character as a hologram.

Magic Droid Shots

Guests exploring Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge can also get magic photos taken with BB-8 from Star Wars Episodes VII, VIII, and IX or BD-1 from Jedi: Fallen Order. Whichever droid you choose to snag a picture with, beware those who practice the Dark side of the Force.

Equip A Darksaber 

The Darksaber is an ancient weapon created more than a thousand years ago by the first Mandalorian to become a Jedi Knight. Many beings have used it over the years, and now it can be found across from Oga’s Cantina at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. After dark, you can grab the legendary blade and pose for an inspiring photograph.

About Steven Wilk

Steven has a complicated relationship with Disney. As a child, he visited Walt Disney World every few years with his family. But he never understood why kids his age (and older) were so scared of Snow White or Alien Encounter. He is a former participant of the Disney College Program (left early…long story), and he also previously worked in Children’s publishing, where he adapted multiple Disney movies and TV shows. He has many controversial opinions about Disney…like having a positive view of Michael Eisner, believing Return of the Jedi is superior to The Empire Strikes Back, and that Toy Story Land and Galaxy’s Edge should have never been built (at least not at Hollywood Studios). Every year for the past two decades, Steven has visited either Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Aulani or went on a Disney Cruise. He’s happy to share any and all knowledge of the Disney destinations (and he likes using parenthesis a lot…as well as ellipses…)
