Star Wars fans, listen up! Disneyland’s transforming into a galaxy far, far away for Season of the Force, and it’s gonna be epic. Mark your calendars for April 5th to June 2nd, because that’s when the Force takes over Disneyland Park with new rides, limited-edition eats, and out-of-this-world merch. First things first: Hyperspace Mountain is back! This high-speed Star Wars overlay on Space Mountain takes you on a wild ride through the cosmos, dodging TIE fighters and blasting past X-wings. It’s guaranteed to get your adrenaline pumping faster than a podracer on Tatooine.
Fuel Up for Your Star Wars Adventures
Speaking of Tatooine, Season of the Force is bringing some seriously space-tacular food and drinks to Disneyland. We’re talking stuff like the Toydaria Swirl (whatever that is, it sounds delicious!), Dewback Chili Noodles (spicy, we hope!), and even a Bantha Burger (move over, cheeseburgers!). Basically, you can eat your way through the Star Wars universe.
Get ready to jump to lightspeed on Star Tours – The Adventures Continue! This time around, the ride is getting some fresh updates inspired by the hit Disney+ shows “Ahsoka,” “Andor,” and everyone’s favorite bounty hunter, “The Mandalorian.” No spoilers here, but let’s just say you might encounter some familiar faces (or helmets) on your next hyperspace voyage.
Fireworks Get a Star Wars Makeover
Disneyland’s nighttime fireworks are already legendary, but during Season of the Force, they’re getting a special Star Wars twist. On select nights, you can experience “Fire of the Rising Moons,” a new fireworks show that’ll make you feel like you’re right in the middle of a galactic battle.
- During Season of the Force, guests can sport new merchandise coming to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Star Trader in Tomorrowland at Disneyland Park, plus Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney District. Among the new releases will be the Star Tours – The Adventures Continue merchandise collection (pictured), coming to Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, Calif. (Disneyland Resort)
- New in 2024, aspiring bounty hunters in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will be able to join the search for Din Djarn, Grogu and more with a holopuck Magic Shot from Disney PhotoPass Service during Season of the Force, April 5-June 2, 2024. With the purchase of Disney Genie+ service at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, Calif., guests can also commemorate their visits to a galaxy far, far away with themed Disney PhotoPass Lenses.

And calling all hardcore Star Wars fans! Don’t miss the separately ticketed Disneyland After Dark: Star Wars Nite. This special event lets you explore the park after-hours, with unique entertainment, character sightings you won’t find anywhere else, and even more Star Wars-themed food, like a pineapple and ube (purple yam) crescent sundae (because, why not?).
Whether you’re a lifelong Star Wars fanatic or just looking for a fun-filled adventure, Season of the Force at Disneyland has something for everyone. So grab your lightsaber, your crew, and get ready for a galactic good time!
