More Galactic Experiences Landing at Disneyland Resort in Celebration of Star Wars Day (and Beyond!)

Fans of a galaxy far, far away will discover additional, limited-time experiences, character encounters, photo opportunities and more this May and June throughout Disneyland Resort. It all adds to the galactic adventures already found at both Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Tomorrowland in Disneyland park year-round.

  • Hyperspace Mountain
  • Hyperspace Mountain

Enjoy Out-of-This-Galaxy Immersive Experiences

In Tomorrowland, Hyperspace Mountain is back for a limited time through July 4! You can once again hurtle through hyperspace while dodging furious dogfights during this high-speed adventure.

Then, make the jump to Star Tours: The Adventures Continue and hop aboard a Starspeeder 1000 for an unforgettable flight to legendary destinations across the Star Wars galaxy. Fun fact: Star Tours is celebrating 35 years of galactic adventures this year!

Over at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, you can live your own adventure as you join a climactic battle between the Resistance and the First Order in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and take control of the most famous ship in the galaxy aboard Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

Encounter Heroes, Villains and Bounty Hunters

Captain Phasma and a detachment of Stormtroopers have returned for a limited time to patrol Tomorrowland, seeking out Resistance sympathizers and reinforcing the will of the First Order. Plus, stay tuned for new visitors approaching on the horizon.

And a trip to planet Batuu would only be complete with a visit to see everyone’s favorite Wookiee, a selfie with R2-D2, and encounters with Kylo Ren and Rey.

See Yourself in Another Galaxy

For a limited time, Tomorrowland showcases special photo spots celebrating the Disney+ original series’ set in the Star Wars galaxy. You can take your picture sitting on a replica of the palace throne from “The Book of Boba Fett.” Nearby, recreate the moment in season two of “The Mandalorian,” when Grogu connected with the Force at the ancient Jedi temple on Tython.

Also, be on the lookout for Disney PhotoPass photographers offering limited-time Magic Shots featuring Stormtroopers and K-2SO in Tomorrowland. Another, featuring Grogu, is located on the outer edges of the galaxy, on your way to Batuu!

Try Otherworldly Flavors

Throughout the month of May and June, new galactic noshes can be found at Galactic Grill in Tomorrowland and throughout Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Some of the new items will include:

  • New Bubo Wamba Family Farms Cup (Milk Stand, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge)
  • Blue Milk: Mon Cala Swirl (Milk Stand, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge)
  • Parfait of Mustafar (Galactic Grill, Tomorrowland)
  • Ishi Tib-style Pasta with Braised Beef Banthak (Docking Bay 7 Food & Cargo, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge)
  • Sullust Garlic Chips (Jat Kaa’s Coolers, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge)

For the full list of special Star Wars-themed offerings at Disneyland Resort, read the full Foodie Guide to May the 4th and Beyond.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

Discover New Treasures during your Galactic Travels

Multiple assortments of all-new souvenirs are available at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Tomorrowland throughout the month of May and June while supplies last, including new droid builds, lightsaber hilts and more.

Star Wars Trading Post at Downtown Disney District

And explore even more Star Wars in the Downtown Disney District and at the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort

Starting May 4 at the Downtown Disney District, Star Wars Trading Post will be expanded to offer additional merchandise.

Guests will find more limited-time photo opportunities in the district, too, including a Star Wars-themed sand sculpture and more.

Plus, visit The LEGO Store through May 4 to help a LEGO Master Builder build an 8-foot-tall Yoda model, on display until May 8. Build times will be posted daily.

Delicious Star Wars-themed offerings can also be found throughout Downtown Disney District, including a Galaxy Caramel Macaron at Kayla’s Cake, a Light Classic Shake and a Dark Classic Shake at Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes, Lovepop Greeting cards and products, themed socks at California Sole, themed products at Pandora Jewelry and more.

Over at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, check out an out-of-this-world lobby display, plus Star Wars-themed treats, including a Star Wars Sugar Cookie, a Wookiee Cookie and Pretzel Lightsabers available for purchase in the lobby, all while supplies last. Additionally, during select nights in May, guests staying at one of the hotels of the Disneyland Resort may be able to experience movie nights featuring Episodes VII – IX from the Skywalker Saga.

Whether your allegiance is with Rebellion or Empire, Resistance or First Order, it’s time to live your own Star Wars adventure in a bigger way than ever before at Disneyland Resort.

Stay tuned for more galactic experiences landing soon!

Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony. 500 years later, those same monsters returned and lone warrior, Raya, tracked down the last dragon 🐉 in order to finally stop the Druun for good.

✨Raya has inspired kids of all ages and is back for meet and greets during the Lunar New Year Festival! You can find her at Redwood Creek Challenge at Disney California Adventure, now through Feb 15. 

On your way to meet Raya, you will be awestruck with wonder and delight as you walk through a grove of colorful Chinese lanterns 🏮 that light the pathway to the princess herself!

🤟🏼🎸🎤 Rock the Universe 🎤🎸🤟🏼 We got a chance to check out Florida’s biggest Christian music festival right here at @universalorlando last night. This two day event requires special tickets starting at $79.99 to enjoy 1-park from 4:00pm - 1:00am on one of the two nights. To enjoy both nights tickets start at $119.99 and go up to $135.99 for 2-park or 3-park privileges. The event is filled with faith & fun showcasing Christian music’s biggest stars on the Music Plaza Stage & in the Coca-Cola FanZone as well as exclusive merchandise and autograph sessions. Select attractions and dining outlets are open all evening. For the 1-park one night ticket I had, the following attractions were open: Revenge of The Mummy, TRANSFORMERS: The Ride-3D, Despicable Me Minion Mayhem and Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. We also had to take advantage of the lighter crowd in Finnegan’s for a quick dinner ☘️ The event is typically Friday & Saturday with a Sunday Morning Worship Service (admission is included with any RTU ticket, but this was at capacity). It’s also important to note that Express Passes are available with these tickets starting at $24.99 and going up to $34.99 for unlimited. The majority of the crowd is made up with youth groups from around the country, but they are with young pastors and their families. If you are interested in attending in 2024 the dates are January 26th & January 27th 📆 This was their 25th year! Have you ever been to this event?
