Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance | DISNEY THIS DAY | January 17, 2020

On this day in 2020, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance opened in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland. It was the second attraction of its kind to debut, with the first at Disney’s Hollywood Studios premiering about a month before. ‘Rise of the Resistance’ is one of the most advanced and multi-layered attractions Walt Disney Imagineering has ever designed. It combines four interworking ride systems with Audio-Animatronics, projection mapping, and practical sets. [5 years ago in 2025]
