*Tickets are nontransferable and nonrefundable. The number of tickets available is limited. Events often sell out early. Tickets are valid only during specific event dates and hours. Prices, entertainment, attractions, experiences, ticket types, entitlements and other event elements subject to change without notice.

At this time the event is only scheduled for April 14, 2017, which is during Star Wars Celebration 2017, but with the word Nights being plural, it sounds like they may begin offering a paid, upcharge event similar to Star Wars Weekends after park closing in the future.  If they don’t OVERSELL it like Villains Unleashed, it could receive positive reviews and continue.  If they have crazy mass crowds, it will end up being a one time event due to negative feedback.

Annual Passholders may receive a $10 discount per ticket.

You can purchase tickets to this event HERE.
