Sure, it’s the holiday season at Disney Parks, but for Star Wars fans, a super unique holiday has arrived!
Life Day is coming soon!
We’re talking about Life Day, which is a traditional Wookiee holiday honoring family, joy, and harmony. It’s celebrated on November 17th (which coincides with the anniversary of The Star Wars Holiday Special’s first airing in 1978). And Life Day is currently being celebrated at Disneyland — but now you don’t have to go to Disneyland to get Life Day gear!
You can now stock up on Life Day merchandise on shopDisney! Since it IS a Wookiee holiday, you can grab a new plush of the most famous Wookiee of all, Chewbacca. The Life Day Chewbacca Plush has Chewy dressed up in a traditional red robe while holding a silver orb.
