Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, Anaheim

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is a fully realized Star Wars world where towering rock spires, thriving alien marketplaces, and starships parked between dusty outposts transform Disneyland Park into a living chapter of the galaxy far, far away.

Located inside Disneyland Park on the western edge of the park near Frontierland and Critter Country, Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge unfolds across the remote trading settlement of Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batuu. The moment you cross into the land, the environment changes completely. Weathered stone towers rise overhead while cargo ships, droids, and market stalls fill the pathways. The hum of engines, distant starships, and alien languages drifts through the air while Resistance fighters and First Order troops quietly patrol the streets. Every corner reveals another detail: food stands serving galactic dishes, merchants selling handcrafted relics, and hidden alleyways where smugglers and travelers appear to conduct quiet business.

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge represents one of the most immersive themed lands ever created in a Disney park, built with the intention of making guests feel like active participants in the Star Wars universe.

Instead of recreating famous locations from the films, Imagineers designed Batuu as a brand-new planet that exists within the official Star Wars canon. Black Spire Outpost serves as a frontier port where smugglers, traders, Resistance operatives, and First Order forces all cross paths. The land spans more than fourteen acres and was built using massive rockwork structures, full-scale spacecraft, and layered environmental storytelling. Even the food, merchandise, and music were designed specifically for Batuu, giving the land its own character within the broader Star Wars universe. Attractions like Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance anchor the experience while countless small details scattered throughout the land reward visitors who explore slowly.

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge works best when explored at a relaxed pace that allows the environment to unfold.

Enter the land early in the day when Batuu is just beginning to come alive and the pathways remain calm enough to appreciate the details hidden throughout the outpost. Wander through the marketplace stalls, pause to watch ships overhead, and listen to the sounds drifting between the buildings. Later in the day, return as the lights begin glowing across the rock formations and the land takes on a completely different atmosphere under the evening sky. The transformation from daylight to nightfall reveals a place designed to feel like a functioning outpost at the edge of the galaxy rather than simply another themed area inside a park.
