Life Day is the day that was created by the Wookies of Kashyyk thousands of years ago. This is a holiday about coming together to celebrate family, friendship, joy, and harmony with loved ones. This is a holiday that is celebrated on November 17, the day it was first introduced to the world with the release of the Star Wars Holiday Special in 1978.
