Well after skipping 2018 Star Wars Celebration returns in 2019 with a bang! With many pundits expecting the event to be held in Anaheim California to coincide with the opening of the Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge theme park, the announcement of the hosting city of Chicago came as somewhat of a surprise to many with the windy city setting the stage for fans to celebrate all things Star Wars at McCormick Place from April 11-15, 2019.

This will prove to be one of the most interesting celebration crowds in history with an ever divided and increasingly confrontational fanbase being brought together for the first time since The Last Jedi was released and the inflammatory remarks directed at the loyal (and critical) fanbase by Lucasfilm representatives Kathleen Kennedy, Rian Johnson, J.J. Abrams and Pablo Hildago which followed.

Tickets, including multi-day, single-day, and VIP passes, are scheduled to go on sale in the USA on June 5 at noon CST at www.starwarscelebration.com.
