At the D23 Expo 2017, a “Star Wars” hotel has been officially announced.

This fully immersive experience is part of what Disney is calling their 360 vacation concept.

This experience will be a “living adventure” that features an “entirely new form of Disney storytelling.”

A Star Wars-inspired space lounge featuring guests and droids mingling beneath glowing ambient lights, with curved windows revealing a star-filled galaxy—recreating the immersive atmosphere of Walt Disney World’s Star Wars hotel as first revealed during D23 EXPO 2017.

“It’s unlike anything that exists today.” Bob said. “From the second you arrive, you will become a part of a Star Wars story! You’ll immediately become a citizen of the galaxy and experience all that entails, including dressing up in the proper attire. Once you leave Earth, you will discover a starship alive with characters, stories, and adventures that unfold all around you. It is 100% immersive, and the story will touch every single minute of your day, and it will culminate in a unique journey for every person who visits.”
