Disney Takes To TikTok For A Tour Of New Star Wars Trading Post at Downtown Disney
Disneyland Resort is getting creative when it comes to ways to keep guests engaged with “the magic” even though Disneyland and Disney California Adventure have been shut down for nearly a year. One of the areas that was newly opened before the COVID- 19 shutdown was Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. This new land at Disneyland Resort is famed for its headlining attractions but also boasts a bustling marketplace brimming with treasures from around the galaxy.
With Disneyland closed, guests have not been able to peruse the wares on the planet of Batuu but Disney has come up with a new (and might we say very clever) way to bring this intergalactic merch to the masses.
Disneyland Resort has taken the vacant ancient temple-like structure that was previously home to a Rainforest Café and have repurposed it for a Galaxy Far, Far Away!
Opening on February 19th, Star Wars Trading Post will be your one-stop-intergalactic-shop for authentic products coming to you directly from Galaxy’s Edge. This includes:
- Legacy Lightsabers
- Pre-Built Droids
- Creatures
- Adult & Youth Robes
- Holocrons
- Plush & Artisan Toys
- And more!
Earlier this month we were told that the design of the NEW Star Wars Trading Post at Downtown Disney will resemble a hidden jungle Resistance base! And now, we get a first look at how this new concept is coming together. Disney took to TikTok this afternoon to give us a first look:
