Season of the Force 2025 Batuu West Lightsaber Meetup at Disneyland
May 2 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Join us Friday, May 2nd to celebrate Season of the Force at Disneyland park in California.
We will tentatively meet at 7:00 PM PT at the TIE Echelon and take photos in front of the TIE Echelon and the Millennium Falcon. Please arrive promptly, as photos may start any time after the posted meetup time.
Please follow instructions from all SWGEDiscord volunteers as well as all Disney Parks cast members. Remember to keep all pathways clear so other guests and Cast Members can safely move through the park.
Meetup Reminders
- Lightsaber dueling is strictly prohibited, and we will ask guests to leave.
- Meet in the courtyard by the TIE Echelon promptly at 7:00 PM.
- As always, please be kind and respectful of Disney cast members, SWGEDiscord volunteers, and other meetup guests.
- If you see something or feel uncomfortable, please talk to a SWGEDiscord volunteer. We have a zero-tolerance policy for harassment and we will ask guests to leave.
Our meetups are fun and inclusive events where you can meet and chat with other Star Wars fans, show off your latest sabers, and, most importantly, join in group photos inside Galaxy’s Edge.
If you want to volunteer to help with the event or have any questions, please post in the #Reservations-And-Meetups channel on our Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Discord server or message us through Facebook or Instagram.
What Is a Lightsaber Meetup?
A lightsaber meetup is a fan gathering to celebrate lightsabers. The Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Discord group is best known for hosting lightsaber meetups in the Disney Parks and at some Star Wars-related conventions. However, we are not the only group that hosts meetups.
Each meetup is a fun and safe environment to show off lightsabers and talk about Star Wars with other fans. While they are the focus of the event, you do not need a lightsaber to participate in the events. We also encourage cosplays, Batuu bounds, or other Star Wars themed clothing.
We coordinate our events with the Disney Parks events team or convention organizers in advance. Our lightsaber meetups are always free, but you may need to pay to attend events at the Disney Parks or certain conventions. Ticketing requirements are outlined in each event listing.
Our team is comprised entirely of volunteers. No one is paid or compensated to work or appear at our events. This includes our event coordinators, crowd handlers, photographers, videographers, streamers, content creators, and celebrities. Also, we are not compensated for hosting our events.

What Is the Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Discord?
The Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Discord is a fan-run group celebrating all things Star Wars and Disney parks. Perhaps best known for hosting lightsaber meetups at Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland and Disney World, the SWGEDiscord is a family-friendly and inclusive space where fans can discuss all aspects of Star Wars and Galaxy’s Edge safely.
In addition to our saber meetups, we host in-person and virtual events, including a book club, watch and listening parties, trivia nights, and more. Our Discord server has channels dedicated to planning your visit to Galaxy’s Edge on either coast, the latest stock updates, and talking about your favorite Star Wars shows, movies, books, and comics.
