“Fire of the Rising Moons”
“Fire of the Rising Moons” is a new fireworks show visible from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. The show is actually a special view of the park’s bigger nighttime spectacular but with “Star Wars” music and an introduction from a character called the Lore Weaver. It debuted on April 5 and will continue after Season of the Force ends, adapting to different seasonal spectaculars.
Watch the original version below.
Below is the Pixar Fest version synched with the “Together Forever” fireworks.
Star Tours – The Adventure Continues
Star Tours at Disneyland Park, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disneyland Paris debuted new scenes on April 5, coinciding with Season of the Force. The scenes feature characters and elements from “Ahsoka,” “The Mandalorian,” and “Andor.” Watch all the new scenes (as seen at Disney’s Hollywood Studios) below.
Like “Fire of the Rising Moons,” the Star Tours updates will stick around after Season of the Force ends.
Hyperspace Mountain
Space Mountain becomes Hyperspace Mountain for Season of the Force. The track and layout of Space Mountain remain the same but the visuals and audio are different, featuring John Williams’ “Star Wars” score, TIE Fighters, and more. There are also “Star Wars” elements in the queue. Watch our 2022 video below.
Seek and Find
This self-guided scavenger hunt is free to guests through June 6 or while supplies last. Pick up a “map” at Star Trader in Tomorrowland, then search Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge for six cylinders featuring parts of a code. After noting the symbols on the cylinders, you’ll decrypt a codeword using signs throughout Tomorrowland before returning to Star Trader to receive a prize. Read more about the seek and find.

Sabine Wren from “Star Wars Rebels” and “Ahsoka” is appearing in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge for a limited time.
