Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge




Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge Overview

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is Disney's most immersive theme park land to date. When guests enter the land, they find themselves on the remote planet of Batuu. Rather than develop a land around any of the franchise's previously established settings, Disney created a brand-new world that has its own unique place in Star Wars history. This unique setting offers a genuine Star Wars experience where even the biggest fans can discover some special hidden gems and familiar details.

Batuu's story line is primed for a Star Wars-style adventure. A home to smugglers, rogue traders, and adventurers, Batuu's glory days as a major spaceport ended after the creation of hyperspace travel. Now on the outskirts of civilization, the planet is perfect for those looking to get out from under the First Order's thumb. Even on Batuu, though, guests will still see the ever-encroaching presence of the oppressive First Order, as well as the Resistance who struggles to oppose them.

Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Attractions

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run

The first attraction announced for Galaxy's Edge gives guests the chance to live out the dream of every Star Wars fan: piloting the Millenium Falcon. More info

Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

On Rise of the Resistance, guests will find themselves as recruits of the Resistance on a dangerous mission that puts them in direct conflict with the forces of the First Order and Kylo Ren himself. This attraction was built on a scale that guests haven’t seen before in a Disney theme park, with Walt Disney Imagineering's Scott Trowbridge calling Rise of the Resistance "the most epic attraction [they've] ever built."
