How Disney Made Stars Wars Come to Life on Earth

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (March 11, 2019) – When Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edgeopen in May at Disneyland and then in August at Walt Disney World’s Disney Hollywood Studios, it will be the culmination of perhaps the greatest effort ever put forth in the history of Disney’s Imagineering team.

For over six years, a project team of over 4,000 cast members and outside contractors have worked to be sure every detail is exactly as it should be. When park guests enter Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, they will indeed be “transported” to a land not of this Earth.

This, of course requires a level of effort and attention to details that only the likes of Disney can provide.
