food IS a theme park
Star Wars fans, today is a BIG day for you!
Galaxy’s Edge
In Disney World, Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris, new scenes from The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, and Andor have been added to Star Tours, AND NOW there’s a new character wandering around Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland!
You know it’s a good day when you find not one, but TWO new pairs of Minnie ears in a Disney park! Lately, we’ve been in the mood to go shopping. Maybe it’s because the holidays are coming, or maybe it’s because Disney just released a ton of new holiday merchandise!
The Force is calling us… to shop!
Either way, we headed over to the Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney, and we were not disappointed by what we found!
Bright suns, travelers! We’re headed to a galaxy far, far away (Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, to be exact) to check out one of the hottest spots in Disneyland! Once the parks opened after being closed for over 400 days, we just HAD to get to Oga’s Cantina for a cocktail (or two!).
Oga’s Cantina
Oga’s Cantina is located in Black Spire Outpost, the village on the planet Batuu where Star Wars: Galaxy’ Edge is set. In reality…it’s kinda tucked behind Frontierland in Disneyland proper. 😉 It’s famous for out-of-this-world concoctions and being one of the HARDEST reservations to snag in Disneyland (and Disney World too!). We snagged a reservation right after it reopened. Let’s see if this “wretched hive of scum and villainy” (sorry, wrong Star Wars Cantina!) still holds up!
opens NEXT week! And to get us ready for this all-new experience, Disney has started to release lots of important information. Last week Disney went on menu MANIA by revealing menu options for Oga’s Cantina, the Milk Stand, Ronto Racers, and more! And now: we’ve got pricing on some droids!

The Droid Depot is one of many merch locations in the land and will offer all the parts, chips, manuals and more that guests will use to build their very own astromech droids! [Read more…]
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
will open in Disneyland in the summer of 2019 and in Disney World’s Hollywood Studios in late fall of 2019. And Black Spire Outpost — the village on the Planet of Batuu that we as guests will visit — will serve up drinks and entertainment at Oga’s Cantina!

Oga Garra is the alien proprietor of Oga’s Cantina… and as Black Spire Outpost is set on a smuggler’s planet, Oga is used to keeping “unruly patrons in check.” In fact, the Cantina has a history of being a safe haven for smugglers and patrons hoping to avoid authorities. [Read more…]
Excited for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to open in Disney World and Disneyland in 2019? Wondering what’s going on behind all of those construction walls? Yep — we are, too!!
Well, we’ve got a sneak peek for you! Disney Parks has released some awesome drone footage of Galaxy’s Edge and it’s looking incredibly impressive!
