Star Wars Celebration LA will take between April 1st and 4th, 2027, at the Los Angeles Convention Centre, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Star Wars, and applications for the Art Show, Fan Tables and Props are now open.
Art Show
The Art Show is a fan favorite feature of Star Wars Celebration – a specially curated Artist Alley. It brings artists together of all disciplines and styles to celebrate Star Wars with original artwork created just for Star Wars Celebration.
In order to be eligible to participate in the Star Wars Celebration Los Angeles Art Show, you must have previously created Star Wars art for Lucasfilm, Disney, or one of the companies’ official licensees. Licensed art includes but is not limited to sketch cards, comics, posters, and consumer products packaging. Fan art and personal commissions do not qualify as officially licensed art and will not be accepted for consideration. There will be no exceptions to this requirement.
The application process consists of two rounds – (1) verification of licensed artwork and (2) submission of original concepts.
First round submissions will be accepted between July 13, 2026 and August 21, 2026. We will not accept submissions outside of this review period. Please submit 3-5 examples of your artwork along with a brief summary of your experience with creating licensed artwork. Please include any supplementary links to an online portfolio. Submissions should be emailed to CelebrationArtShow@lucasfilm.com.
We will evaluate all submissions and provide an application status update by September 4, 2026. Applicants will be notified if they are able to participate in the next round. Find out more here.
Fan Clubs & Organizations
Bring your community to the heart of the galaxy! Star Wars Celebration is all about fans, and we’re excited to once again offer a limited number of tables for fan clubs & organizations to connect with fellow fans, showcase club activities, and recruit new members. Where you’re showcasing group cosplay or a passion for collecting, celebrating a favorite character, or promoting a charity initiative, this is your chance to share what makes your corner of the Star Wars galaxy special.

Fan-Built Props & Sets
Have you built a life-size ship, recreated an iconic location, or crafted a prop that’s ready for its close-up? Star Wars Celebration has always been home to some of the most impressive fan-made creations. From detailed prop replicas to immersive environments and large-scale fan-built displays, we want to celebrate the creativity, craftsmanship, and passion of the Star Wars community by showcasing fan creations throughout the event.
Because space is limited, all submissions will be reviewed through an application process. Participation in previous shows does not guarantee acceptance to Star Wars Celebration Los Angeles. Fan props must be staffed by at least one person who represents the group during Show Floor/Exhibit Hall hours.
