I couldn’t find anything at all on the Original Trilogy - or much of interest to me personally (other than these 7 pieces of content for Andor and Visions, plus a couple of bits and pieces on ILM history / ‘Light & Magic’)

I hope anyone who has gone there has a great time - and there is obviously much more to the Star Wars Celebrations than just the Panels… 👍

If anyone has any other info, content or videos from the panels or their Celebration 2025 experiences etc please post them up!

Star Wars Celebration 2027 takes place in LA - from the Thursday 1st to Sunday 4th April; at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

It should be a big event - and may even feature some actual Original Trilogy content… given it’ll be the 50th anniversary.
