How Star Wars Celebrated May The 4th
Today was a great day to be a fan!
Happy Star Wars Day!
Did you know the first May The Fourth was celebrated in Toronto?
“In 2011, the first organized celebration of Star Wars Day took place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada at the Toronto Underground Cinema. Produced by Sean Ward and Alice Quinn, festivities included an Original Trilogy Trivia Game Show; a costume contest with celebrity judges; and the web’s best tribute films, mash-ups, parodies, and remixes on the big screen. The second annual edition took place on Friday, May 4, 2012”
11 years later, Star Wars made sure today was a great day to be a fan of the series.
The 2022 edition started with the trailer for the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series being released.
