Anyone who’s a Star Wars fan knows that today— November 17th—is a very special holiday. No, it’s not the day that a film premiered, it’s Life Day! This year, fans can commemorate the season with some new collections and merchandise available at Disney Parks and on shopDisney.

UPDATE (2/28/2022): The Blue Orb Life Day Mug and Starbucks mug featuring Chewbacca have made their way to shopDisney. Originally, both designs were only available at Disney Parks. Add these commemorative items to your collection today.
What’s Happening:
- StarWars.com is getting in on the holiday fun with a galactic celebration of their own: Life Day! The ancient holiday focuses on Wookiee culture, values, and galactic harmony and was first introduced to fans during the infamous 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special.
- While the show itself has received a bad rap, the importance of Life Day extends beyond the program and is something every special across the galaxy can celebrate.
- Last year, Disney+ and LEGO gave fans a new Star Wars: Holiday Special and this year, for the first time, a collection of themed merchandise will debut at Disney Parks and on shopDisney.
