StarWarsCelebration is heading to Japan in 2025! Here's what we know:
The galaxy far, far away is coming to Asia after more than a decade, as Lucasfilm announced today that the next edition of Star Wars Celebration will take place in Japan in April 2025. The fan event allows people who love the franchise created by George Lucas to come together and be a part of the franchise's history, as new films and television series are announced in front of thousands of admirers.
The fact that the event will come back to Asia certainly comes as a surprise, given how Star Wars isn't as popular there as it is in the United States. As proven by the box office for the films set in the franchise released under Disney, audiences in Asian countries aren't very interested in the galaxy far, far away compared to other major Hollywood blockbusters.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The reason behind an edition of the event not being held next year is simply the fact that Celebration has never been an annual event. The convention was originally founded back in 1999 in order to promote the release of The Phantom Menace, with Celebration only coming back when a prequel trilogy installment was right around the corner.
While an official city hasn't been announced for the 2025 edition of Star Wars Celebration, Tokyo seems like the most plausible choice due to the Disneyland Resort located in the city. In the meantime, you can check out the official trailer for the next live-action series set in the galaxy far, far away below.
