Disney’s Star Wars Weekends kick off in just a couple of weeks. The galactic event takes place at their Hollywood Studios theme park in Orlando, and although yes, the heat will probably be Mustafar-like, the guest list is impressive. Most impressive. Disney already announced that Mark Hamill will be appearing, and now they’ve revealed the rest of their secrets.

John Ratzenberger, guys!
Besides getting autographs from guests and seeing them in a special Legends of the Force motorcade, attending the event means access to limited-edition merchandise, shows, character dining, and interaction with costumed Star Wars characters who normally don’t appear in the parks. Yes, you could get pictures with personalities such as Kit Fisto and Aurra Sing.
Are you headed to Star Wars Weekends? Let us know who you’re most excited to see!
I’ll be there every weekend, Sunday will be the first day I go. Today I stayed home and went and sat in the “Iron Throne” from Game of Thrones! I’m excited to get some autographs and some collectibles!
My brother is so upset about missing this 🙁 Eric Cameron is in the military over seas! Hope Mark Hammel will be back 2015 so my sweet brother can meet his favorite person on this universe!!!!
For some reason I can’t post on Facebook pages anymore, so I’ll vent about it here: I’m sick of the idiots who say “UGH DISNEY LOOK WAT THEYR DOIN TO STARWARS.”
To clarify: STAR WARS WEEKENDS HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A DECADE. THIS IS NOT BECAUSE OF THE DISNEY BUYOUT.
I’ll be there weekend one for Chewiee!!!!!!!
I’ll be there for Hamill. Star Wars Weekends are the best.
Natalie Portman! Where are you??!! lol
wish I knew about this 2 weeks ago. I’ll be there for weekend I instead of 2,3 or 4. I made my travel arrangements last week & would have adjusted them had I known this was coming.
