Last weekend the Star Wars fandom enjoyed days filled with panels, trailers, and cosplayers as the 2019 Star Wars Celebration in Chicago played out. Did you miss some of the exciting news? Don’t worry- we’ve got you covered with all the details. Get ready to geek out, fellow Star Wars fangirls (and boys!)
While I didn’t make it to Chicago, I used my Force Ghost (okay, so my internet connection) to stay up to date on what was going on over there.
First of all: this has to be said. There are no cosplayers like Star Wars cosplayers.
They really show up and show OUT for these events. No offense to Awesome-Con Cosplayers at all, but dang, did you see some of these looks at Star Wars Celebration?
Wowza!
There was a ton of information flowing out of this event about all things Star Wars coming in 2019.
In case you are still on your way to Tosche Station to pick up some power converters and missed it: 2019 is going to be HUGE when it comes to the Star Wars Fandom.
