Yep, it’s the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser. This totally immersive offering will debut in 2022 and we can’t WAIT to visit The Sublight Lounge, see a “REAL” lightsaber in person, and more! Now, we’re checking in on behind-the-scenes progress!
We hope you’re in the mood for some STAR WARS NEWS.

It’s May the 4th, AKA Star Wars Day, and Disney just dropped a LOT of new info about the Star Wars Hotel, Galactic Starcruiser. We learned when it will open (it’s been delayed), that it will show us a new kind of lightsaber, and about a featured dining experience onboard. Now, we’ve got ANOTHER Starcruiser update!
Um, hello, Disney? Yes, we’re ready for the next season of The Mandalorian and more details about the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series.

Well, while we wait for more details on the upcoming Star Wars projects, we might as well pick up some new merch! And this new Star Wars mug collection looks like the perfect way to treat ourselves.
It’s Rising Moons over Batuu as we are all eagerly awaiting the upcoming arrival of the Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge BIG e-ticket attraction, Star Wars: Rise of The Resistance.

Expected to open on December 5th at Walt Disney World (and Disneyland on January 17th) we felt some serious hype at D23 this year when we were treated to the first real look at the attraction. And later when we got to actually GO INSIDE and experience it for ourselves!
The Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser news keeps on comin’ this week! Today on the Walt Disney World Resort’s page, a piece of concept art depicting a lounge onboard the Halcyon has a name: The Silver C Lounge!

Who’s excited about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, opening in Disney World and Disneyland THIS YEAR?? (See everything you need to know about Galaxy’s Edge HERE.)
We’re always looking for new insights and information about the new lands. And while there are a few books and comics being released to introduce us to Black Spire Outpost on the Planet Batuu, we here at DFB are a little more interested in the FOOD!
We had a few hints at what might be served at Oga’s Cantina here. But now we’ve seen a Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge COOKBOOK pop up over on Amazon today.
