“And we want to see the Resistance from the First Order era, the prequel era, a familiar ship from The Mandalorian, and Rogue One.” The illusion will be created via the bar viewport, a widescreen, seven-pane window to the stars.

“We want to see a little bit of Empire-era Star Destroyers and TIE fighters,” Handke says. Guests will be transported to different locations and all while getting a tour of space, and sampling amazing drinks from those different planets – and also, time periods. Hyperspace is more than just a name, guests should think of the lounge venue like a party ship through the galaxy. Ultimately, based on the fact the venue would be aboard a cruise ship, it was decided to make the lounge in the form of a Star Wars ship. According to Handke, brainstorming with where the lounge would be set from a cantina, on a planet, or somewhere strange in the galaxy. Ideas for the lounge began to flow around the time of The Last Jedi and Solo. So we pitched the idea, ‘What if we did a lounge that’s for grownups only at night? It becomes an adult playground for the world of Star Wars.’ And everyone just loved that idea.” (Parents, don’t worry: the lounge will be open to your younglings in the daytime, with plenty of non-alcoholic drinks.) “But as a grownup, and a parent, I’m jealous that I don’t have my own space on the ship where I can immerse myself in Star Wars, since Star Wars is multi-generational. “We always talked about the fact that kids get to immerse themselves in Star Wars,” Handke says, having overseen the Star Wars-themed kids spaces on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy.

Handke told, “the idea came, simply, from wanting to hang out in Star Wars.”

revealed some additional details which included an interview with Imagineer, Danny Handke who is spearheading the Star Wars lounge project for the Disney Wish. The experience will be amplified by surround-sound audio and a holotube that presents holographic models of nearby ships. Ranging from serene vistas to action-packed encounters, the spectacles seen through this virtual “window” into the galaxy will feature famous space ships from the films and fan-favorite locales like Batuu, Tatooine, Mustafar and Coruscant.
