Star Wars Celebration 2023: Other Info
We’re sure you’ll agree that’s a lot of cool stuff!
Even with less than a year between the 2022 and 2023 Star Wars Celebrations, there’s a lot to look forward to in the interim.
The move to Europe is an exciting one as well, given that most Star Wars Celebrations have taken place in the United States.
As ComicBook.com writes:
In addition to three conventions held at the ExCel Centre, Star Wars Celebration also hosted an event at Germany’s Messe Essen in 2013. Outside of the three Europe stops (four if including next year), plus the 2008 event in Japan, all other Celebrations have been hosted stateside.

In other words, the Star Wars Celebration has really only taken place in the US, UK, Germany, and Japan.
There’s a lot of other options if they decide to go global again in the future, post-London 2023, into Star Wars Celebration 2024 and beyond!
With that said, that’s pretty much all there is to know at the moment. Stay tuned for more exciting details to come for Star Wars Celebration 2023 at the Excel Center in London, England, Europe, from April 7 to April 10, 2023.
Have a magical day!
