ABOUT STAR WARS: GALAXY'S EDGE

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is a 14-acre themed land at Disneyland in California and coming soon to Disney's Hollywood Studios in Florida.

The land is set on the remote outpost planet of Batuu, which is home to Black Spire Outpost, a port full of smugglers, rogue traders, and adventurers.

The land will feature two new attractions: Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. On Smugglers Run, visitors will get the chance to pilot the iconic Millennium Falcon while on a mission for Hondo Ohnaka. Set near a rebel camp, Rise of the Resistance will put riders in the middle of a battle between the Resistance and the First Order.

Rise of the Resistance is scheduled to debut at Disney's Hollywood Studios on December 5 and at Disneyland on January 17, 2020.

In addition to the rides, Galaxy's Edge will feature several eateries and retail shops, including Droid Depot, where visitors can customize their own droid.
