While it wasn’t an outright opening date, Disney teased us last night by offering up the seasons in which the new Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge (Star Wars Land) will be opening at their two US parks.
We now know that the Disneyland’s version will open next summer and Disney World’s land in Hollywood Studios will open later on in late fall. These fall pretty much where we expected them to occur.
Disney had previously said the Disneyland opening would occur around the time of the D23 conference, which will take place next summer.
Disney also shared a new video that gives us new perspectives on the new immersive land. Have a look:
