“Star Wars” is back in Orlando once again-but this time, it’s a celebration commemorating the “Star Wars” saga and their fans.

In short, the “Star Wars” celebration is the official Lucasfilm event, which celebrates all things “Star Wars”; it is produced by fans, for fans. “Star Wars” celebrations (or conventions) are equivalent to the red carpet post show parties for Hollywood elitists in the eyes of fanatics-they feature cast and crew celebrities, fans, a diverse array of costumes, music, live entertainment, autographs, and panels. According to their website however, “it’s mainly friends who gather to have fun and celebrate their love for the saga. From fans who first experienced “A New Hope” in theaters to kids just discovering “Star Wars” through “Star Wars: The Clone Wars.”

The fifth annual celebration of “Star Wars” will be taking place August 12-15, 2010, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. It will mark the 30th anniversary of “The Empire Strikes Back,” and it will also be honoring the “continuing televised adventures of the animated series ”Star Wars: The Clone Wars.”

Special guest hosts will be “the man,” George Lucas himself, Jon Stewart, and Warwick Davis. The autograph guest list is too lengthy to list, but we’ll give you a sneak peak at some of the most popular “Star Wars” celebrities attending this year’s celebration.

Mark Hamil, (Luke Skywalker) Carrie Fisher, (Princess Leia) Anthony Daniels, (C-3PO) and Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) are just a few of the ”Star Wars” cast members guests will see in attendance.

There will also be a long list of events to partake in, including the highly anticipated hour long interview between comedian Jon Stewart and Lucas, the creative mind behind the “Star Wars” saga. This is the main event of the day, and fans will have the chance to submit their questions for Lucas and Jon via the event section of the website before the celebration begins on August 12, 2010. If you plan on attending this year and would like your question to be answered during the interview, head over to the website as soon as possible!
