4. Best Snacks in the Galaxy

Be sure to stop by the Milk Stand to experience a Star Wars classic! A frozen concoction called Blue Milk is a must-have for any Batuu traveler. There's also Green Milk, if you're feeling more adventurous (both available with and without alcohol)!

Kat Saka's Kettle serves up a sweet and savory popcorn snack. With its vibrant pink and purple hues, it's not only delicious - but fun to eat, too!


5. Rise of the Resistance (Opening December 2019)
