With so much happening at Star Wars Weekend, it was impossible to get everything in a single video.  This episode is all about what’s new for 2014.   Star Wars Weekend expanded to 5 weekends in 2014, extending the traditional event by a full week.  I attended the final weekend, June 13-15, with celebrity appearances featuring Star Wars Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels.  It also happened to be Father’s Day weekend, and Disney introduces some cool Star Wars father related t-shirts including “The Galaxy’s Best Dad” featuring Darth Vader.

Legends of the Force Celebrity Motorcade. Darth’s Mall was back in Sound Stage 1, its original location.   I was just in time for the introduction of the limited edition Star Wars Weekend Magic Bands – available in Green (Yoda) and Red (Darth Vader), they introduced a bonus feature.  Within Hollywood Studios, when you return for a Fast Pass using a Darth Vader Magic Band, the kiosk lights up red and you hear Darth Vader breathing!!!  Cool – I can also verify that the Magic Bands only work at Hollywood Studios and were still working in October 2014 (Yes, this blog is a little late).  Check out the video!

Star Wars Weekends are full of Star Wars related activities.  James Arnold Taylor, the host of Star Wars Weekends, re-caps the day’s events on the main stage right after the celebrity motorcade… Hope you enjoy the preview and future episodes of Star Wars Weekend.
