If ever there was a fan who has quite literally taken us on a journey, it’s Jez Allinson  – aka the Running Stormtrooper – and Celebration Europe 2023 sees Jez and his quick-stepping counterpart once again run to raise funds for charity, and this time he’s had some very special help.

Celebration Plans

During Star Wars Celebration the record breaking marathon and ultra running, charity fundraising Running Stormtrooper will be once again raising money for Make-A-Wish and Spread-A-Smile, 2 really wonderful and worthy children’s charities. The Running Stormtrooper will be running just over 15 miles a day (25kms), every day on a treadmill until the magic 100kms is reached! The Stormtrooper’s booth will be crammed full of incredible images, presentations and treasures including all of the running medals, the Guinness World Record and the hallowed bespoke good luck sign from Lucasfilm and Pinewood Studios, to name a few.
