In celebration of the upcoming film release, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, 400 Disney Parks Blog readers gathered at Epcot this week to watch as the park’s Spaceship Earth attraction was temporarily transformed into the Death Star.

The after-hours event was full of surprises as well, as attendees heard about the latest Star Wars entertainment offerings from Entertainment’s Michael Roddy and got the first look at new merchandise inspired by Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, with Merchandise’s Steven Miller. The biggest surprise was an appearance by actor Mads Mikkelsen who plays Galen Erso in the film.

Our meet-up attendees also celebrated by wearing their best Star Wars-inspired outfits. Check out the highlights from this one-time event above. Or to replay the full live stream of night’s events, click here.
