Great news for fans of Star Wars: The Singapore Tourism Board is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Disney’s stupendously popular movie and characters with a 3 day festival cleverly titled “Star Wars Day: May The 4th Be With You”. To be held from May 4 to May 6, in collaboration with The Walt Disney Company Southeast Asia, this is part of a three year partnership aimed at providing unique experiences themed around Disney’s biggest brands and most popular stories and characters. The collaboration will kick off with the celebration of Star Wars’ 40th anniversary beginning next month. The three-day festival will be held at Gardens by the Bay, followed by other exciting Star Wars-themed activities planned in the second half of 2017. During the festival, the Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay will be transformed into lightsabers pointing to the sky as SaberTrees. Other activities include live demonstrations and exclusive exhibits of vintage toy collections and fan art for Star Wars fans along with a 10 or 4.5 km Star Wars Run in which participants can choose to either run for the Light or Dark Side. Now that sounds like fun!
