Hollywood Studios is a big park which is about to get a whole lot bigger and busier with the opening of Star Wars : Galaxy’s Edge. Here are some attractions that you cannot miss if you’re visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Walt Disney Presents ; One man’s dream.
An insanely underrated attraction in Disney World. This place is basically a miniature museum where you can see retro memorabilia, costumes, models, photos, videos all surrounding Walt Disney, the company and the parks. This is perfect for a bit of air conditioning if nothing else. But it really is somewhere great to explore and brush up on your Disney knowledge. There’s also usually a meet and greet stop right at the back, currently you can meet Mike and Sulley there!
Beauty and the Beast live on stage.
This show is super underrated in my opinion. It picks out the most important parts (and songs!) of the story and presents them in a 25 minute show. There’s not many places you can see the Beast, Chip, Mrs Potts, Lumiere or Cogsworth, and certainly nowhere else that you can see them all together! It’s great, don’t believe me? Ask the dishes!!
For the first time in forever : a Frozen sing-along celebration.
Okay so I’m slightly biased when it comes to this one because Frozen is one of my all-time favourite films, however, this isn’t just a sing along. The hilarious historians of Arendelle take the citizens of Hollywoodland through the story in their own unique way, of course with the opportunity to belt out “let it go” at the top of your voice (no judging at Disney).
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.
Now for my fellow thrill seekers, the iconic Hollywood Tower Hotel. The next time you check into a desserted hotel on the wrong side of Hollywood Studios, make sure you know what kind of vacancy you’re filling, because this one is sure to give you butterflies.
Rock ‘n’ Rollercoaster starring Aerosmith.
The last one also goes out to the thrill seekers, the ONLY ride at Disney World that goes upside down. Enough said. Not to mention it’s fast, it’s dark, it has loud music, all in all it’s just one of Disney’s best rides.
