Yes, Disneyland Park in California is a major destination for fans, specifically within the 14-acre land known as Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. The premier attraction is Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, a massive, multi-system ride that places guests in the middle of a battle between the First Order and the Resistance. Another major ride is Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, where guests take on roles as pilots, gunners, or engineers to fly Han Solo's famous ship. Outside of Galaxy's Edge, in Tomorrowland, the classic Star Tours – The Adventures Continue remains a fan favorite, featuring a motion-simulator journey through various planets from the entire saga. Together, these attractions offer a comprehensive "Force-filled" experience, ranging from nostalgic space travel to cutting-edge, immersive dark ride technology.
