Star Wars Day 2019 is upon us, and for diehard fans, it’s a good time to pay homage to the blockbuster franchise.

Here are five things you can do to celebrate the galaxy far, far away this Saturday, May 4.

If you’re familiar with the phrase often heard in the Star Wars franchise, “May the force be with you”, then you’d know why this particular date means a great deal to Star Wars fans. To explain further, it’s simply because of the wordplay between “May the fourth be with you” and “May the force be with you”. Pretty clever, huh? Created by fans, the event has now become a phenomenon worldwide. But what can you do for Star Wars Day 2019 in Singapore? Read on to find out more.
