Disneyland Resort has announced new timeline updates to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland Park.

Beginning April 29, 2026, the expansion will give Star Wars fans more chances to explore the eras of the Star Wars saga.

New added highlights include:

  • Darth Vader and Imperial Stormtroopers, Leia Organa, Han Solo and Luke Skwalker arrive on Batuu, joining other popular characters that roam the Outer Rim outpost.
  • Selections of scores from legendary composer John Williams playing throughout the Black Spire Outpost, pulling musical themes from the first six films.
  • Select shops updated to represent the new storylines with First Order Cargo transforming to Black Spire Surplus and a different array of curiosities and artifacts at Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities.

Starting April 28, new merchandise is hitting the shelves in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. The Aurebesh Collection puts an immersive spin on the iconic Star Wars logo, as it is written in Aurebesh. New novelties celebrating the unforgettable Star Wars stories are now available at various locations, such as the Salvaged Protocol Droid Bucket, Bantha Sipper, Lightsaber Swizzle Sticks and more.

Additionally for a limited time, the fan-favorite Hyperspace Mountain returns to Tomorrowland beginning April 28, taking travelers on a high-speed Star Wars adventure through swarms of Rebel X-wing starfighters and Imperial TIE fighters alongside the Rebel Alliance.

On May 22, a new mission debuts at Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run in celebration of the release of Lucasfilm’s ‘Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu,’ leading to potential new adventures on Bespin, Coruscant or the wreckage of the second Death Star above Endor
