Is there a virtual queue for rise of the resistance 2023?

Look for Nemo and Dory to the right of the Tree of Life at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance no longer uses the virtual queue system.



As of early 2026, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Disney World and Disneyland does not use a virtual queue. The ride transitioned to a standard standby line in late 2021. This means you can simply walk up and join the physical queue at any time during park hours, though you should expect wait times to fluctuate between 60 and 120 minutes. For those who want to skip the long wait, the attraction is available as a Lightning Lane Single Pass (Individual Lightning Lane), which allows you to pay a separate fee (typically $15–$25) for a specific time slot to use the priority entrance. While virtual queues are still used in 2026 for brand-new attractions or special seasonal events, the "Resistance" has settled into a traditional operational model for most of the year.

Rise of the Resistance really has an appeal for everyone, but if you or someone in your group just doesn't care for Star Wars that universe or its characters, then waiting 80-200 minutes for this attraction will not have the pay off for them as it would a Star Wars fan.

Rise of the Resistance can be scary at times for kids, even ones who love Star Wars. The interactions with Kylo Ren, Stormtroopers, and the First Order can be a bit intimidating. The ride itself can also be too much for some children, since some areas of the ride are dark and there is even a drop.

Yes! Just because you join a virtual queue and “virtually” wait for your boarding group to be called doesn't mean you won't have to wait in an actual line once your group is called. Usually, once your boarding group is called and you join the actual, physical queue, you will experience a bit of a wait.
