Experience The Force Singapore brings BB-8, The Millennium Falcon, and The Last Jedi merchandise to Orchard Road
Star Wars fans, lock S-foils in attack position and charge your lightsabers, because Star Wars: Experience the Force Singapore is coming to Orchard Road. The 10-day-long Star Wars festival will kick off at the stroke of midnight on 1 September, and bring along with it a bunch of Star Wars activities that will thrill fans both young and old.
Younglings between the age of four and 12 will get the opportunity to put their mastery of the Force to the test at ION Orchard’s Padawan Training event, and also get a chance to meet BB-8 via virtual reality (he’s far too busy aiding the Resistance to be at Orchard Road, of course).
One aspect of Star Wars that’s always captured the imagination of fans is its beautifully designed vehicles and starships – for the first time in Southeast Asia, a mock-up of the Millennium Falcon will be unveiled. If you’re a loyal Imperial scowling at the addition of a criminal’s starship, fret not; also on display is a 3.5 metre AT-ACT walker, a breathtaking symbol of Imperial might.
Perhaps the most exciting part of the event is the unveiling of Star Wars: The Last Jedi merchandise before its release to retailers. If you’ve been eyeing the Kylo Ren’s TIE Silencer, here’s your chance. As a bonus, the toy releases will also give us our first clues on what to expect in The Last Jedi before its release on 13 December.
