Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on August 29, 2019, immersing guests in the remote outpost of Black Spire on the planet Batuu. Designed as a fully realized Star Wars environment, the land features attractions like Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, alongside themed dining, shops, and interactive experiences. Unlike other lands, Galaxy’s Edge tells a continuous story set between Episodes VIII and IX, with guests stepping directly into the Star Wars universe. As one of the park’s most ambitious expansions, it represents Disney’s shift toward deeply immersive lands that blend storytelling, technology, and interactivity.
