Disneyland will be creating limited time magic throughout Tomorrowland which will allow you to create your own Star Wars adventure.
With the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge quickly approaching, Disney wanted to give guests the opportunity to enjoy a bit of Star Wars fun before the land opens on May 31st — and what better day to do so than on May the 4th?
And speaking of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge today we were able to get a LOOK BEHIND THE WALLS in Hollywood Studios. Check that out here!
Hyperspace Mountain
May the 4th be with you as you ride on Hyperspace Mountain! Yep, the Star Wars-themed overlay for Space Mountain is returning to Disneyland for a limited time. While riding, you will rocket into the battlefield with swarms of Rebel X-wing Starfighters and Imperial TIE fighters.

Limited Time Food and Beverage Options
Did Disney say Star Wars snacks? Disney did! They will be offering a few limited time food and beverage options for the May the 4th Celebration! Galactic Grill and Alien Pizza Planet will both be serving Star Wars-themed snacks, including a Dark Side Chicken Sandwich and an Outer Rim Pasta.
