New ‘Star Wars’ experience coming to Disney Springs this fall

A new immersive experience, Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire, is set to open to the public at two new Void Experience Centers in Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort and Disney Springs at Walt Disney World Resort, beginning this holiday season.

Here is a look at some of the technology of The VOID.

The new Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire was announced by Lucasfilm, ILMxLAB — which is the Immersive Entertainment division of Lucasfilm — and the VOID on Thursday.

“Through the power of the VOID, guests who step into Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire won’t just see this world, they’ll know that they are part of this amazing story,” said Curtis Hickman, co-founder and chief creative officer at the VOID.

The new experience will use space from Once Upon A Toy in the Marketplace, with most of the merchandise from that area relocated to the new Star Wars Trading Post.
