Festival of the Force returns for its second outing of the year at York Railway Institute on Sunday 25th May 2025, and joining the activities is Brian Herring, BB-8 from the sequel trilogy.
At Festival of the Force, our mission is to deliver an unforgettable, immersive experience for Star Wars fans right here in the UK. As the largest convention of its kind, our central location makes it easily accessible to enthusiasts from across the nation! We are passionate about celebrating the vast and iconic Star Wars universe while building a strong sense of community among collectors, fans, and cosplayers of all ages. With a galaxy of Star Wars merchandise, celebrity appearances, and fan-led events, we strive to connect all force wielders to ignite the excitement of the fandom.
Brian joins previously announced guests Lynn Robertson Bruce, Alistair Petrie and Paul Blake at the event, and there’s sure to be plenty more over the coming weeks, and click here for all of our coverage from the first running of the show back in February.
