Star Wars fans can currently experience the Lightsaber Training Academy experience for a limited-time at Disneyland Paris. Check out the full show, including repurposed costumes from Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser

What’s Happening:

  • On a recent trip to Disneyland Paris, Laughing Place was able to check out Discoveryland’s limited-time Lightsaber Training Academy show.
  • Inviting Star Wars' youngest fans to learn how to wield a lightsaber from the Saja, a group of lightsaber trainers originally introduced for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, the experience is only available through May 24th.
  • The failed immersive hotel experience now serves as a headquarters for Walt Disney Imagineering, but the limited-time experience made use of the cast member costumes originally used aboard the Halcyon.
  • Kids participating in the experience get to try their hand at some of the Saja’s coolest lightsaber tricks, which ends with a special appearance by Rey.

  • Being at Disneyland Paris, the show features instructions in both French and English.

  • It’s great to see Disney reusing some of the incredible storylines from Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, which was one of modern Disney’s most ambitious projects.
  • Here’s a look at how the costume appeared on the “space cruise."

  • Check out Galactic Starcruiser’s Lightsaber Training experience below.

  • The overpriced role-playing offering redefined what is possible in immersive entertainment. While the failure is disappointing, Galactic Starcruiser is sure to have a strong impact on the entertainment industry.
  • For those looking to take a magical European adventure, Laughing Place recommends Mouse Fan Travel for all your Disneyland Paris vacation needs.
