Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance now open at Disneyland Resort

The groundbreaking new Disney attraction, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, is now open at Disneyland park in California — completing the park’s version of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

On this attraction, riders will join a climactic battle between the Resistance and the First Order to preserve the balance of the galaxy. Guests will board a full-size transport shuttle and enter a nearby Star Destroyer as they experience an adventure that blurs the lines between theme park ride and reality. This attraction will also include an intense face-off with Supreme Leader Kylo Ren. You’re even responsible for a major plot point in “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.”

“Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is epic, immersive storytelling on a massive scale — and our Imagineers have created an attraction that sets a new bar for theme park experiences,” said Bob Chapek, chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products. “Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance puts gets at the heart of their very own Star Wars adventure, and is the most advanced, action-packed attraction Disney has ever created.”

To celebrate the opening of this new attraction, new food and beverage options, as well as merchandise, are now available in the land. You can learn more about them here.

The same attraction recently opened at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida in December 2019. You can watch our video of that version of the ride below, and stay tuned for a video of Disneyland’s version later today:
