Many Star Wars fans enjoy celebrating “May the 4th” as the unofficial Star Wars Day. My (Donna) son is already prepping his blue milk and putting fresh batteries in his lightsaber in preparation for this fun day.

Around the Disney Parks, Disney offers many great offerings with special merchandise, delicious treats, and this year a brand new Grogu sipper available for a limited time.

Disneyland offers many great “After Dark” events throughout the year. Be sure to check out Monica’s review from Throwback Nite HERE. One of the favorites is coming up soon with Star Wars Nite offered on May 2, 4, 8, and 11th.

This is a special ticketed event that includes special entertainment, special merchandise, unique photo opportunities, and of course rare character meet and greets.

On Main Street, USA, meet Ezra and Sabine, Captain Rex, and The Seventh Sister. Heading towards Adventureland, Zam Wesell will greet guests. Both BB-8 and C1-10P will greet guests in Frontierland.

Fantasyland will be home for Queen Amidala during this event. While at Critter Country guests can meet Ewoks, R5-04, and Jawas. Tomorrowland has a great group of characters including Darth Vader and Darth Maul, R2D2, Emporer Palpatine and his Royal Guard.

So many great Star Wars Characters greeting guests just in time for May the Fourth.

Finally, Star Wars Nite would be incomplete without a trip to Galaxy’s Edge. During this event, guests can meet Chewbacca, Kylo Ren, Rey, Vi Moradi, C-3PO, Mandalorian and Grogu.
