The movie connects iconic scenes from the movies in fun new ways, following the journey of Luke Skywalker. This is the best 10-minute synopsis of the saga I’ve ever seen.

Hyperspace Mountain at Disneyland Resort

The classic Space Mountain attraction has been reimagined as Hyperspace Mountain, thrusting guests into the darkness for an action-packed battle between Rebel X-wings and Imperial TIE fighters. This should have always been a Star Wars-themed ride. It fits seamlessly. So awesome!

Darth by Chocolate: so decadent and tasty. It will seduce you to the Dark Side with its chocolate ganache layers ending with red velvet cake at the bottom. Candy lightsaber and chocolate Darth Vader decorations. You can definitely share this rich, chocolate delight. Available at the Galactic Grill.

Galactic Grill Dining

Adding to the fun, guests at the Disneyland Resort can enjoy tasty food and beverages inspired by a galaxy far, far away. At the Galactic Grill, order from the Light Side or the Dark Side and get your meal in a collectible Man in Carbonite Meal Bucket. Have Darth by Chocolate for dessert and be seduced to the Dark Side. Grab a drink with a light up Millennium Falcon or Death Star. Have a BB-8 Droid Crisped Rice treat. Grab a BB-8 novelty sipper with a beverage and have a super fun souvenir while you’re out and about in Tomorrowland.

BB-8 Droid Crisped Rice Treat: hand-dipped with M&Ms. Delish and pretty, too. take one home for the kids.

I’m looking forward to another trip down to Disneyland so I have more time to explore the all-new Season of the Force at a more leisurely pace. One evening wasn’t nearly enough time.

The new experiences further expand the Star Wars presence ahead of the new Star Wars- themed lands coming to the Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort. Groundbreaking in California and Florida is expected in 2016.
