Disney Visa Cardmembers, get ready for something new coming to Disneyland this year!
Disneyland Star Wars Launch Bay
Disney Visa Cardmembers have access to some seriously fun perks at Disney Parks, from exclusive discounts on dining and merchandise to special character experiences you can’t get anywhere else. One of the most beloved benefits is the ability to access cardmember-only character meet and greet opportunities, and one popular Disneyland perk is getting a major update this April.
Previously, Disney Visa Cardmembers visiting Disneyland have been able to meet Darth Vader at a special, reserved photo location inside Star Wars Launch Bay in Tomorrowland. This experience has been a huge draw for Star Wars fans, offering shorter waits, a more relaxed environment, and complimentary digital downloads of professional photos just for flashing your Disney Visa Card.

But change is coming to the Dark Side. Beginning on April 29th, Kylo Ren will officially take over this exclusive Disney Visa Cardmember meet-and-greet. That means Darth Vader will be moving to Galaxy’s Edge, making room for his grandson to make an appearance. For fans of Kylo Ren, or those who missed seeing him up close, this is a brand-new reason to take advantage of this cardmember perk.

Cardmembers can stop by for a photo opportunity at a location reserved just for them, inside Star Wars Launch Bay. Best of all, you’ll receive complimentary downloads of your photos, making it an easy and memorable souvenir. Guests must present a valid Disney Visa Card for entry, and availability can vary. On most days, this experience is typically offered from 2 PM until 6 PM, though hours are always subject to change, so it’s a good idea to check once you’re in the park.

This change makes an already popular Disney Visa perk even more exciting for Star Wars fans visiting Disneyland this spring. Be sure to keep following DisneyFoodBlog for the latest Disneyland updates and breaking news.
