There’s a whole new world at Disneyland. Specifically, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, a fantastic addition that promises to transport visitors into the heart of the Star Wars universe. Officially opening on May 31, this new land covers 14 acres and is the largest expansion Disneyland has seen since it opened in 1955. It is designed to resemble the Black Spire Outpost on the remote planet of Batuu, where adventurers and traders gather, and it’s set to be a must-visit for fans of the franchise.
This immersive experience will offer guests a chance to explore a bustling spaceport filled with unique attractions. New maps were recently distributed to parkgoers, showcasing the exciting features of the Star Wars-themed expansion. Visitors can expect to encounter the local language, Aurebesh, so downloading the Play Disney mobile app might be a good idea for translation help!
In addition to the stunning landscapes and themed structures, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will introduce thrilling rides, including the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. This ride will soon be joined by Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, making it a perfect time for Star Wars fans to visit. There will also be interactive experiences such as lightsaber-building stations and droid customization, alongside several new themed eateries and shops to explore.

The Disney Parks Blog has shared a preview of the new map, and Disneyland’s official Instagram has also posted updates. With just a few days until the grand opening, excitement is building among fans and park visitors alike.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is set to be dedicated on Wednesday at 8:20 p.m., with none other than George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, in attendance. Fans can look forward to a livestream of the dedication ceremony, bringing the excitement of this new land to everyone.
According to L.A. Times reporter Todd Martens, the design of Black Spire Outpost aims to create a lively and rugged atmosphere that contrasts with the charming setting of Disneyland.
