Hello there, Jesse. Thanks for stopping by planDisney to share this question with us. It looks like your visit to the Disneyland Resort is almost here. As Han would say to Chewie, "Punch it!" I'm here to answer your question at light speed to make sure you're ready for your visit.
Disneyland After Dark: Star Wars Nite is an after-hours event at Disneyland Park. To attend this event, a separate special event ticket is required. I checked the Disneyland site and noticed that
tickets are still available (subject to change) for the date of your visit. Woohoo! Your Disneyland After Dark:
Star Wars Nite ticket will allow you to enter Disneyland Park as early as 6:00 p.m. If you'd like to enjoy the park before this time, you will need a regular theme park ticket (and theme park reservation) and you most certainly can have both tickets for the same day.
I love attending these after-hours events with limited capacity. It's been a while since I've attended
Star Wars Nite, but there's a good chance you'll spot some rare characters around the park. My favorite encounter was getting a selfie with my favorite protocol droid, C-3PO. At the start of the event, you will most likely get a map with all of the evening's offerings. Download the
Disneyland app to take advantage of any opportunities to
mobile order any exclusive food and beverage offerings. This is always a huge time saver and gives me more time to hop on an attraction or take advantage of an exclusive photo op.
Jesse, I hope the information I've shared is helpful as you are getting ready for your magical adventure. Here's to having your best Disney day!
May the Force be with you,
Michelle
