DARTH VADER Is Coming Back to Disney World!

The return of traditional character meet and greets in Disney World has brought so much fun with it!

Pluto Meeting Guests

We’ve welcomed back character dining, on-stage shows, popular meet and greet locations, and so much more! And now, with the help of the force, we’re getting ready to say hi to some galactic friends…and foes.

July 17th marks the return of character meet-and-greets at Star Wars Launch Bay in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Here, you can celebrate the stories of Star Wars, thanks to exhibits with costumes, models, concept art, and actual props from the movie.

Starting next month, you can meet Chewbacca, BB-8, or even Darth Vader (!!!). Ever since we saw Disneyland was getting a character interaction with Darth Vader, we were hoping to get our own, so we’re pretty happy to hear this!

So be sure to get a warm, Wookie hug from Chewie when the meet and greets return! And since we’re talking about Star Wars, check out the biggest announcements from the Star Wars Celebration! Or, for more information on a reopened character interaction, check out our post about Adventurers Outpost in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

They’re back!
