This year’s big Star Wars convention, Celebration, takes place between April 16-19 at the Anaheim Convention Center just south of Los Angeles. And if you’re one of those disappointed to not be making the trip, take heart: a lot of the event will be live streamed online at the franchise’s official site.
This year’s event promises a not-so-surprising focus on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and includes panels featuring conversations with director J.J. Abrams, producer Kathleen Kennedy plus stars Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill. Also included will be chats with spin-off directors Gareth Edwards (Star Wars: Rogue One) and Josh Trank (whose film’s title has yet to be revealed).
And that’s just the tip of the Tauntaun’s tail, as the live stream will deliver 30-plus hours of content, including looks at various new products and media tie-ins and a host of other talent involved with the past and future of the ever-growing franchise. It all kicks off at 10:00am PST (or 6:00pm UK time) this Thursday, with the closing ceremony on Sunday.
