Exciting news comes to us from Attractions Magazine!

The biggest Star Wars fan event of all time is coming to Orlando and it’s just about a month away. Star Wars Celebration V will be held at the Orange County Convention Center from Aug. 12 to 15, 2010.

This year’s event will commemorate the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars: Episode V — The Empire Strikes Back, and the ongoing, weekly adventures of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Featuring celebrities, costumes, live entertainment, screenings, autographs, collectibles, panels and more, Star Wars Celebration V is the official Lucasfilm convention.

The main event will be when The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart interviews Director George Lucas in an hour-long, candid conversation. A self-proclaimed lover of Lucas’ “galaxy far, far away,” Stewart aims to focus on areas of interest to the many diverse and devoted groups that have helped Star Wars endure for more than 30 years. In addition, fan questions can be submitted through the official Star Wars Celebration V website at starwarscelebration.com.
