UPDATED FOR 2024. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened in 2019, but we don’t expect the hype to die down anytime soon! Luckily, we’ve put together a guide detailing everything to know about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland, along with Season of the Force returning in 2024.
Star Wars Land Disneyland
Guests first blasted off to space May 31, 2019. Ever since then we can’t get enough of living out our very own Star Wars story at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. This completely immersive land at Disneyland Park allows visitors to explore a planet called Battu and discover Black Spire Outpost – a village filled with traders, smugglers and interplanetary travelers of every kind.
While visiting Batuu you can experience two new attractions, eccentric dining, quirky shops and interactive experiences around every corner. With so much to do and see, you’ll want to make sure you have enough time to do it all!
Keep reading for everything to know about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge before your first visit, or first visit in a while.

Prep Before You Visit Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
There are two things that will really make your visit to Batuu memorable. Dressing the part and speaking the language. Both of these take just a little bit of preparation. One thing that is unique to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is that there is no set uniform that the Cast Members must wear. Instead, there is a collection of costume pieces that Cast Members put together themselves to create their own work uniform. Because of that, it's pretty easy to "bound," or dress like a resident of Batuu.
Dressing in layers with desert-inspired colors and unique hairstyles will make you fit right in. You can even purchase name badges that look like those they wear in the land. In fact, there were a few times when I thought for sure a park guest was a Cast Member. It's kind of fun to try to figure out who's who!
The next thing you can do to prepare, which is even easier than rounding up an outfit, is learning a few key phrases. Galaxy's Edge does such a good job immersing you in the story that they have developed their own phrases you'll only find in Batuu. Here are some phrases you'll want to use while exploring:
- Bright Suns = Good day/morning
- Rising Moons = Good evening/night
- Til the Spire = Farewell
- Hydrator = Water Fountain
- Refresher = Bathroom
It's also important to know two words that are quite different and should not be mixed up on Batuu:

Everything To Know About Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Rides
Arriving on Batuu isn’t difficult at all. In fact, there are several different ways you can enter the land.
One entrance via Critter Country, another in Frontierland, and one in Fantasyland. The standby queue for Rise of the Resistance usually begins via the Frontierland entrance, but if you plan to rope drop that attraction be sure to speak to Cast Members about the best route to Galaxy’s Edge.
Speaking of Rise of the Resistance, let’s talk about the rides!
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
At Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, you and five others will be able to choose between being a pilot, engineer and gunner on your high-speed adventure through the galaxy. Team up with beloved characters like Chewbacca and Hando Onaka as you try to complete your intergalactic mission on the most infamous ship in the Star Wars universe!
We recommend going with as big a group as possible. Up to six people can ride together and this way you can switch roles if you want to.
- Pilot Tips: Since there are two pilots, each pilot operates a different function of the flight. The pilot on the left controls horizontal movements, while the pilot on the right controls vertical movements. Choose what one is more comfortable to you and try to move the controls as gently as possible.
- Gunner Tips: Guests can choose between automatic and manual modes as the gunner. If it’s your first-time riding or you don’t feel comfortable with controls, we recommend choosing automatic. Manual is harder, as you’ll have to aim the guns slightly.
- Engineer Tips: If you have small children or anyone in your party who doesn’t want a lot of responsibility, the engineer is the best role for them. All you need to do is hit the buttons – it’s that easy.

Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance allows guests to team up with the Resistance as they attempt a secret mission against the First Order. This attraction is the most immersive and technologically advanced attraction to ever land in a Disney park!
Want to ride these two attractions in Galaxy’s Edge? Standby lines are always an option, but there are other ways to skip the longer wait with Lightning Lane.
