Orlando Events Calendar – Galactic Encounter Day

SONY DSC

It has been nearly a month since Star Wars Celebration VI, and if you’re like me…  Well you’re feeling a little withdrawal.  Come Saturday, the folks at the Orange County Regional History Center act as enabler with their annual Galactic Encounter Day.

Galactic Encounter Day, being held at the History Center on Saturday from 10:30-3, is a kid-friendly Star Wars event.  At 11am, the 501st will march through Heritage Square to kickoff the event.  Then, enjoy snacks at the Blue Milk CafĂ©, then participate in activities like constructing your own light saber, LEGO building, and more.

Check out this video from last year’s event!

Star Wars: Galactic Encounter Day will be held Saturday, September 15th from 10:30am-3pm at the Orange County Regional History Center in downtown Orlando.
