Star Wars Weekends is an annual event that no true fan of Star Wars will want to miss. This annual event takes place at Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Orlando during the four weekends of June. Can you imagine being dressed in a Darth Vader costume in the humid temperatures of Florida in the height of summer?

One of the main draws of the Star Wars Weekends are the characters that attend the event. There are autograph and photo sessions available with the likes of David Prowse, the actor who played the iconic Darth Vader in the original Trilogy. The years event will be hosted by the actor, Warwick Davis who played the character Wicket in Return of the Jedi.

Another major attraction is the fact that you can have your photo taken with Star Wars characters who wander around the theme park, or the daily main parade that features many of the characters from all six of the Star Wars movies.

If you're looking for a more Disney themed Star Wars, then some of the Disney characters have been given a Star Wars makeover. Jedi Mickey, Darth Goofy and Princess Minnie attend the park. But the favorite would ...
... have to be Stormtrooper Donald, where Donald Duck gets to go around the park in full Stormtrooper uniform. If you've ever wanted to be a Jedi, then you can take part in the Jedi Training Academy and learn the powers of the force.

This year we've been promised some breaking announcements, and there has been a fair amount of speculation around what these could be. For example, it has been rumored for a number of years that the Star Tours ride will be revamped with help from the LucasArts Light and Magic engineers. One of the more popular rumors is that George Lucas will make an appearance at the last weekend of the event. True Star Wars fans can only live in hope.
