Disneyland Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland Park in Anaheim, Calif., and at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., is Disney's largest single-themed land expansion ever. Each 14-acre park will transport guests to Black Spire Outpost, a village on the planet of Batuu, where they will be immersed in the world of Star Wars. (Photo: Joshua Sudock/Disney Parks)

The happiest place on Earth is about to make Star Wars fans downright ecstatic. On Friday, 31 May, Disneyland opens the gate to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, an immersive world where followers of the Resistance or First Order can experience their own galactic adventures. Both locations of the park (Disney World's counterpart opens 29 August) will boast two major new attractions, Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. Unfortunately for early guests, only the first ride is ready for the grand opening. (Rise of the Resistance should be available later this year.) Then again, visitors will be so busy piloting the Falcon, getting up close with an X-Wing, meeting Kylo Ren and gawking at the marketplace that they may not miss it. Here are some new images of the streets of Galaxy's Edge, including its star attraction.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will be accessible at Disneyland Resort on May 31.
