Now, this is how you ring in May the Fourth.
Today, the Disney Parks Blog announced Star Wars Nite, the second after-hours event in the new Disneyland After Dark series. Set for the evening of May 3 -- the night before Star Wars Day, May the Fourth -- it's a can't-miss Star Wars party. Guests will be the first to experience the new “March of the First Order,” in which Captain Phasma leads a squad of First Order troops through Tomorrowland; meet Rey at Star Wars Launch Bay; and celebrate the return of Hyperspace Mountain, the amazing Star Wars transformation of the iconic Space Mountain attraction. (For more on Hyperspace Mountain, check out StarWars.com's interview with producer Elissa Logozio.) Even Supreme Leader Snoke would love Star Wars Nite, we think.
Star Wars attire is encouraged for the one-night-only event, which will feature Star Wars-themed food and tons more, including:
- Exclusive after-hours access to Disneyland park, with mix-in access beginning at 6 p.m.
- Special entertainment, including character encounters and more
- Themed décor and immersive Star Wars-themed photo opportunities
- Commemorative lanyard, event credential, and complimentary PhotoPass digital downloads
- First opportunity to purchase limited-edition “May the Fourth” merchandise
