"May the 4th" is an unofficial holiday celebrated by Star Wars fans far and wide. The holiday was created by fans and has its roots in the film and TV series that sprang from the 1977 George Lucas film "Star Wars: A New Hope."
At Disneyland's Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, people are free to express their fandom among Disney's costumed employees as well as a theme park dedicated to the movies that they love. We sent our photographer Jay L. Clendenin to capture it all.
