Prepare for a significant change at Disneyland as Oga’s Cantina is set to close for a period of six weeks, starting on January 20. This closure is part of an exciting update aligned with the timeline transition of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
Oga’s Cantina Closure
The beloved Oga’s Cantina will be undergoing refurbishment and will remain closed until early March, though the exact date of reopening has yet to be revealed. This renovation is not just routine maintenance; it marks a pivotal shift in the thematic landscape of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
In this upcoming transformation, half of the land will reflect the original trilogy, while the other half continues to embrace the sequel trilogy. Such a significant alteration will inevitably impact the narrative surrounding Oga’s Cantina, where Oga will still reign as the proprietor and DJ R-3X will continue to entertain guests with his vibrant mixes.
One exciting addition to the cantina will be the iconic "Cantina Band" song from Star Wars: A New Hope, enhancing the nostalgic atmosphere. Disney has indicated that various aesthetic updates will take place throughout Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, which could very well include Oga’s Cantina itself.
Additionally, standard maintenance will also be performed on the bar to ensure everything remains in top shape for visitors.
Other updates in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will feature a new name for First Order Cargo, the integration of classic musical themes by John Williams into the background ambiance, and the return of legendary characters such as Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Leia, and Han Solo. These enhancements are slated to officially launch on April 29, although guests might catch glimpses of changes even before that date. Notably, the timeline shift has only been confirmed for Disneyland, with no announcements yet for Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
