This week, along with several Father’s Day-related stories, we shared some exciting announcements, including the return of “Guardians of the Galaxy – Awesome Mix Live!” at Epcot.
From now until August 18, you can catch “Guardians of the Galaxy – Awesome Mix Live!” five times a day at the America Gardens Theatre at Epcot and see Star-Lord and Gamora in person as a 7-piece alien band brings timeless classics from the 70s and 80 to life. Baby Groot even makes an appearance!
We also posted a special story highlighting favorite AWESOME eats and sips created just for this intergalactic concert.
For more details about this out-of-this-world musical event and how you can experience it this summer at Epcot, visit our “Guardians of the Galaxy – Awesome Mix Live!” Returns story.
And many of you know, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is all about living your own Star Wars story. This week, we also shared helpful information for off-worlders visiting Batuu and dressing in attire befitting their stories.
While costumes may not be worn by guests 14 years of age or older, appropriate bounding—dressing in outfits inspired by Star Wars—is permitted. Visit Kevin’s original Bounding for Your Visit to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland Resort for a look at permitted attire.
