How to Stream Star Wars Celebration 2022

Star Wars fans have a huge weekend ahead. Not only are the first two episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi premiering on Friday, they’re premiering in the middle of the biggest Star Wars convention in the world. Star Wars Celebration is back after a two-year hiatus and the timing couldn’t be more perfect. Now you don’t have to wait until Friday for some exciting Star Wars content. The celebration starts on Thursday, May 26 and runs through Sunday, May 29.

You don’t have to be in Anaheim, California to enjoy Star Wars Celebration, either. You can actually get the feel of being at a Star Wars convention while sitting on your couch at home thanks to the Star Wars Celebration livestream. Below you’ll find all the info you need about how to stream Star Wars Celebration.

What is Star Wars Celebration?

Star Wars Celebration is the premier Star Wars convention run by Lucasfilm. The convention was launched in 1999 to celebrate the premiere of Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace. The con has occurred on a quasi-annual basis ever since, usually tied to the release of a new film or a landmark anniversary for one of the classics. However, no convention has been held in two years, which makes this Celebration even more worth celebrating.

Can you watch Star Wars Celebration live online for free?

Yes! Well, you can watch some of Star Wars Celebration online. Select panels will be streamed via the Star Wars YouTube page, or on the StarWars.com homepage. The livestream coverage comes from the Star Wars Celebration LIVE! stage right on the convention floor and will feature complete panels as well as interviews with special guests.

Which Star Wars Celebration panels can you watch on livestream?

While there’s not an official schedule of content for the Star Wars Celebration livestream, there are a number of panels that will be streamed during the convention from one panel room and into others for overflow crowds. And since all of these are some of the biggest panels of the weekend, it seems likely that they’ll be part of the livestream. All times are Pacific.
