Huge Changes Coming to Star Wars Galaxys Edge at Disneyland Starting Tomorrow

Disneyland Expands Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Timeline Tomorrow

Since it first opened in 2019, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland Resort has been a masterpiece of immersive storytelling, inviting guests to live their own adventures in the era of the Resistance. But starting tomorrow, April 29, 2026, the boundaries of time and space are expanding in a way that will change Black Spire Outpost forever.

The Galaxy’s Greatest Legends Join the Fray

For the first time, Black Spire Outpost is rolling back the clock. While the land has traditionally been locked into the sequel trilogy era, guests can now experience multiple points in galactic history. This means you might cross paths with icons from the Galactic Civil War and the New Republic alongside the heroes of the Resistance.

Get your cameras ready, because Darth Vader, Leia Organa, Han Solo, and Luke Skywalker are officially joining the roster of characters roaming the land! To make the immersion even deeper, the land’s audioscape is being updated with legendary themes from John Williams’ scores from the first six films, bringing that classic cinematic feel to every corner of Batuu.

New Missions on the Horizon

The excitement doesn’t stop with the timeline shift. On May 22, 2026, a brand-new mission is debuting on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run! In celebration of the upcoming film The Mandalorian and Grogu, your crew will be joined by Din Djarin for a high-stakes adventure.

Even more thrilling? For the first time, the crew will have control over their destination. You could find yourself soaring through the clouds of Bespin, navigating the wreckage of the second Death Star over Endor, or weaving through the skyscrapers of Coruscant.

Nighttime Magic: Shadows and Fireworks

As the sun sets over the spires, two new experiences will light up the outpost:

• “Shadows of Memory: A Skywalker Saga”: This stunning projection show transforms the spires near the Millennium Falcon into a living tapestry of the greatest moments in Star Wars history.
• “Fire of the Rising Moons”: On select nights, watch the Disneyland fireworks from a unique galactic perspective, accompanied by a soaring soundtrack of John Williams’ most iconic themes.

Galactic Grub & Gear

While the stories are changing, your favorite stops remain ready for travelers:

• Fuel Up: Grab a Ronto Wrap (the plant-based option is a fan favorite!) or head to Docking Bay 7 for a full meal.
• Sip the Classics: Don’t forget to visit the Milk Stand for a cup of Blue or Green Milk—the same frosty treats Luke Skywalker loved.
• Craft Your Legacy: Whether you’re building a custom blade at Savi’s Workshop or a loyal companion at Droid Depot, the “way of the Force” is stronger than ever.

Did You Know?

• Hidden Chewie Mode: On Smugglers Run, you can unlock a secret experience where Chewbacca takes over as your flight lead instead of Hondo Ohnaka. It requires a specific sequence of buttons and sticks—ask your crew to help you find the “Wookiee Mode”!
• Movie-Accurate Details: Imagineers visited Pinewood Studios to study the Millennium Falcon film sets, ensuring every pipe, hose, and sticker on the park’s ship is 100% authentic.

Are you ready to face Lord Vader in the marketplace, or is your heart set on that new Mandalorian mission to Coruscant?
