All the ‘Star Wars’ things you need for a 'Star Wars' event

There's something for every super fan

“Star Wars” is an incredible cultural phenomenon that started as a risky sci-fi movie back in 1977 but spawned, ironically enough, an empire. There are movies, television series, books, comics, posters, "Star Wars" action figures, conferences and more. The franchise even has its own official holiday. May 4 is “Star Wars” Day.

'Star Wars' event ideas

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or someone who just discovered and fell in love with Grogu, you can celebrate your fandom any time. Here are some ways to do exactly that.

• Watch party: With nine chapters in the official saga, solo stories, animated movies, television shows and more, there’s enough content to have a watch party that lasts for days. Pick your favorites, assemble your besties and enjoy the show.
• Trivia contest: If you want to see which of your friends is a genuine fan, host a “Star Wars”-themed trivia party. This can either be a typical competition where the host also serves as the MC, or each guest can bring their own set of questions. While the Jedi winner can be the one who answers the most questions correctly, the Dark Side victor can be the one who asks the toughest questions.
• Play date: Adults aren’t the only ones who love “Star Wars.” Invite the kids over for a special themed play date. Kids can arrive dressed in costume and play with “Star Wars” toys and games all afternoon. 
• Baking party: Take advantage of the day’s theme and bake your own tantalizing treats.  See how creative you can get by making Wookiee Cookies, Skywalker Pie, Han’s Flan, Death Star Tarts and more.
