Due to the pandemic, Disney made the decision to cancel the 2020 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend in March. And given the ongoing health concerns, the 2021 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend will be held virtually — and the event will be reimagined with a new theme in 2022. So, if you’d like to take part in the Star Wars Rival Run Weekend, you better run to the registration page ASAP!
runDisney has certainly had to make some adjustments in response to the global health crisis.

Last year, Disney made the decision to cancel the 2020 Star Wars Rival Run weekend in March. Events continued to be canceled or converted to virtual events through into the next year. Now, the 2021 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend will be held virtually — and the event won’t return in 2022.
Even if you’re running your runDisney races from home right now, you can still have tons of fun participating!
