7 Ways to Celebrate Star Wars™ Day in 2025

Dust off your Jedi Interceptors and ready your lightsabers, it’s that time of year again! That’s right, we’re gearing up to celebrate May 4th, also known as Star Wars™ Day. This is the day for fans to show off their love for the most iconic series of all time and introduce new fans to the galaxy far, far away.

We’re here to help you make the most of the celebration with some ideas on how to celebrate in LEGO® style!

Build a LEGO® Star Wars™ set

What better way to celebrate May the 4th than by recreating one of your favorite models from the Star Wars™ galaxy using LEGO® bricks? Whether you dream of flying a starfighter as a pilot, building legendary characters, or reenacting iconic battles, we have a set for every Jedi, Sith, and intergalactic bounty hunter.

A fan of the original trilogy? A fan of the prequel? Or do you swear by the code of The Mandalorian™? No matter where your favorite place in the galaxy is, there’s a LEGO Star Wars set for you.

If Star Wars: Attack of the Clones™ is your favorite Star Wars movie, or you have a soft spot in your heart for the most dangerous bounty hunters in the galaxy, the LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship (75409) Ultimate Collector Series model is the perfect building project for you. Featuring a push-open door, a seismic charge compartment, adjustable blaster cannons, and LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett and young Boba Fett minifigures, this is a must-have for any Mandalorian in training.

Host a Star Wars™ viewing party

This may seem obvious, but one of the best ways to celebrate May the 4th is by watching a Star Wars™ movie or show. This year also marks the 20th anniversary of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith™ and the 10th anniversary of Star Wars: The Force Awakens™, so either is a great place to start. And if you're more into shows, there are many series from the Star Wars galaxy, such as Ahsoka™, The Mandalorian™, Star Wars: The Clone Wars™, or even the LEGO® special Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy. For even more excitement, stream the three-part premiere of Andor: A Star Wars Story™ Season 2 on Disney+ starting April 22, 2025!

A 9-film marathon, the prequel trilogy, the original trilogy, and the sequel trilogy, might be too much (May the Force be with you if that’s what you’re planning on doing), but watch parties are better with friends! Invite your friends over for a good time and make sure you have plenty of snacks. You can also use the LEGO Builder app’s Build Together feature to build a LEGO set together as you watch.

Celebrate the history of LEGO® Star Wars™ with The Force of Creativity

In 2024, we celebrate the 25th anniversary of LEGO® Star Wars™. To mark the occasion, we’ve created a special edition book for fans of the theme and the many sets that have been released over the years. LEGO Star Wars: The Force of Creativity gives you an in-depth look at all the sets we’ve created, dating back to 1999 when the LEGO Star Wars theme first launched, right up until early 2024 when the book was released. The book also features an exclusive time capsule, featuring set and minifigure design sketches, rare building instructions and much more.

A standard edition of the book without the time capsule, but with the same incredible detail, will be available soon – stay tuned for its release!

Play the  Star  Wars™ content in LEGO® Fortnite®

Gamers can get in on the action too! Check out the LEGO® Star Wars™ content now available in LEGO Fortnite®.

Find out more about previous LEGO Star Wars updates here. Rebel and Empire ships have arrived in LEGO Fortnite and the battle is on! Fans can help the Rebels build up their village, wield a Lightsaber, and battle stormtroopers with weapons like thermal detonators, E-11 blasters, and bowcasters. Plus, Star Wars fans and Fortnite fans can find the LEGO Fortnite Star Destroyer for an extra fun twist!

Talk like a Star Wars™ character

What would Star Wars™ be without its beloved characters? From Sith Lords to Jedi, Wookiees, and Ewoks, the galaxy’s inhabitants are simply iconic. Celebrate May the 4th by talking like your favorite characters! Speak like Yoda, try your hand at growling like Chewbacca, or menacingly enter every room with Darth Vader’s deep breaths.

Too much for one day? You can always mix your favorite quotes into conversations. (Just don’t call someone a “scruffy-looking nerf herder”—that’s not very nice!) Greet your friends with an Obi-Wan Kenobi-style “Hello there!” or encourage a friend like Yoda with “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” And of course, the classic “May the Force be with you” always fits.

Do these fun LEGO® Star Wars™ activities

With LEGO® Star Wars™ sets, the adventure never stops! Whether you’re recreating epic battles or telling your own intergalactic stories, there are endless ways to play.

You can celebrate Star Wars Day this year by turning it into a game: build a famous Star Wars moment out of LEGO bricks and have your family or friends guess what scene you’ve built. Or transform your room into your own Star Wars galaxy by building planets and space stations using LEGO bricks, balloons and other craft supplies. Then build a LEGO Star Wars set or design your own spaceship to fly away and explore your galaxy. The play possibilities are as endless as the galaxy!

However you celebrate, we hope you have a wonderful Star Wars day! May the Force be with you.
