With Star Wars: Ahsoka set to hit Disney+ next week, guests will also be able to see the beloved character in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland.
- Disneyland has announced that Ahsoka Tano will begin greeting guests at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge on August 23rd.
- This date happens to be when the new show premieres on Disney+.
- With Disney stating that “guests may encounter Ahsoka,” it seems likely that she will be a roaming character as opposed to stopping for a stationary meet and greet (as is typically the case in Galaxy’s Edge).
- Ahead of her official arrival at Disneyland, Ahoska appeared at last night’s fan event at the Resort:
- Most recently, the Mandalorian and Grogu debuted in this manner in Galaxy’s Edge in both Disneyland and, later, Walt Disney World.
- On that note, while Ahsoka will apparently be exclusive to the Disneyland Resort for now, it’s unclear if she will eventually make her way to Walt Disney World in the future.
- While this version of Ahsoka Tano will be making her Disney Parks debut, the character herself (bearing closer resemblance to the animated version) has previously appeared at certain events, including Star Wars Nite at Disneyland:
