Limited Time Magic Update: Star Wars May The 4th Be With You at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with the Three Caballeros at Epcot – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

Walt Disney World celebrated May the 4th (Star Wars Day) with a special Limited Time Magic offering. The event felt like a lighter version of Star Wars Weekends, but culminated with a terrific fireworks presentation. Mickey, Minnie, R2MK, Donald and Goofy greeted guests, usually rotating among the characters but occasionally all together (below, left). Minnie and Mickey look on at R2MK (below, right).

The characters swapped out all day, but some guests were lucky enough to have photos with all of them! This was for May 4th Star Wars Day, “May the 4th Be With You”.

As another part of  Limited Time Magic, adults were invited to join their kids onstage for the Jedi Training Academy and battle against Darth Vader and Darth Maul to become Padawans (below, left). An adult battles Darth Vader (below, right).

There had been rumors on the internet that Bob Iger and George Lucas would announce Star Wars Land, with an #igerwatch hashtag popular on Twitter. That never happened, but we did enjoy the special Star Wars themed Symphony in the Sky Fireworks (below left and right).
