Feel the Force NightLife

Channel your inner Jedi during an evening of galactic entertainment inspired by a galaxy far, far away.

Geek out like never before while exploring the Academy from an entirely new perspective. Wander around among droids, pose for photos with local costume clubs Endor Base, The 501st, and Mandalorian Mercs and come in costume to celebrate everyone’s favorite sci-fi classic.

Then, wind your way through Kashyyyk (aka the four-story rainforest dome), grab a cosmic cocktail in The Cantina (aka The Terrace), hang out with our own mystical swampy creatures in Dagobah (aka The Swamp) and stargaze from Cloud City (aka the Living Roof).
