food IS a theme park
Walt Disney World is turning the BIG 5-0 next year…
Magic Kingdom
But it’s not the only pop culture institution turning 50 next year! Lucasfilm will also celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2021.
There’s a TON of options for Star Wars-related merchandise right now, and a lot of it features our favorite little green guy, Baby Yoda!
Baby Yoda Mini Backpack
While we absolutely adore the Child, we’re excited to see some new merchandise online featuring some of the OG Star Wars characters! These new Corkcicles are part of the celebration of the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back!
Nothing screams “holiday season” quite like chocolate!
Reindeer Food from Wilderness Lodge
Disney knows this, and they’ve incorporated it heavily into their celebrations! We’ve seen chocolate sculptures at the resorts, including a chocolate monorail, a gingerbread and chocolate village, and chocolate Mickey and Minnie figurines. We’ve also tried SEVERAL chocolate holiday treats, ranging from drinks to cakes and everything in-between! If you’re missing the chocolatey goodness from the parks, then we’ve got the perfect solution for you — you can combine Disney and chocolate at home!
2020 may technically be the Year of the Rat, but it sure feels like the Year of Baby Yoda to us!
Baby Yoda Plush
We’ve seen bags, shirts, toys, phone accessories, and more! Disney even introduced a special Magic Shot to commemorate “The Year of Baby Yoda”. We’ve compiled entire lists of gifts dedicated to this little green alien, and now we’re taking it back to the very beginning — the OG “The Child” plush is now on sale!
There has been a TON of news about lightsabers in Disney World recently!
Ahsoka Tano White Lightsaber Hilts
Two new Legacy Lightsabers arrived in Galaxy’s Edge not too long ago (Count Dooku and Ahsoka Tano), then we spotted a sale on lightsaber blades at Dok Ondar’s, and just yesterday, the voice of Ahsoka Tano, Ashley Eckstein, stopped by Disney Springs to autograph several lightsabers that sold out incredibly quickly! Disney’s been releasing new lightsaber designs left and right, and now we have THREE more lightsaber hilts that just dropped online!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is FULL of great merchandise for Star Wars fans!
Porg Shoulder Plush
You’ve got plushes, lightsabers, droids, Jedi robes, even olive oil! And yesterday, a brand NEW droid joined the lineup of options in Galaxy’s Edge, and it’s one you may recognize!
There is TONS of great Star Wars merchandise out this holiday season!

If you’re a Star Wars fan, you can put all kinds of items on your Christmas list this year: bags, spirit jerseys, T-shirts, and even lightsabers! And with this NEW Star Wars holiday Funko POP! collection at Hot Topic, there’s even more options for spreading cheer all across the galaxy!
Christmas has officially kicked off at Walt Disney World, and in addition to tons of delicious new treats and character cavalcades, the start of the holiday season has another implication…
Santa at Magic Kingdom
…It’s time to start CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!
We know that Christmas merchandise has taken over Disney World, but some people would love to find Star Wars items under their trees this year (AKA us).
Color-Changing Ahsoka Tano Lightsaber
And, there’s nothing less than parks-full of Star Wars merchandise right now with Endor and The Mandalorian Spirit Jerseys, new “scrap metal” for customizable lightsaber parts, and apparel and accessories galore from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
The moment you get your first lightsaber in Disney World is a pretty important occasion. It’s the time you get to choose whether you’re going to fight for the Resistance or support the First Order with Jedi or Sith colored Kyber Crystals.
Legacy Lightsabers at Star Wars Trading Post
We’ve recently seen Force Guided Kyber Crystals that allow guests to interact with Yoda and Darth Vader directly. Plus there’s been the announcement of brand NEW lightsaber hilts from the Jedi Fallen Order video game!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
