The Star Wars celebration Season of the Force recently introduced a new way to experience the Disneyland fireworks from Galaxy's Edge with “Fire of the Rising Moons.” This new experience will now be an offering at Galaxy's Edge beyond the Season of the Force dates as it is adjusted for each Disneyland Park fireworks experience.
Galaxy's Edge has always been a popular spot to enjoy the fireworks, but the experience is now elevated with musical accompaniment—and another fun new element that will be added starting tonight!
Keep reading for more details on a new addition that will become part of “Fire of the Rising Moons!”
New Addition to Fire of the Rising Moons
Disney shared that beginning tonight as part of the “Fire of the Rising Moons” show, guests will see a modified R1 series astromech droid named Bard at the Black Spire Spaceport. This droid is mentioned in the introduction of the fireworks experience, and now it will be visible to guests on the overlook towards the right of the Millennium Falcon. The droid will remain in the same spot during the show.
“Fire of the Rising Moons” is introduced by the storyteller Tohan Lege, known as the “Lore-weaver,” who found an old astromech droid that he repaired. The droid, who he named Bard, has helped to record all of the Lore-weaver's stories.

See the description of Bard's story according to Disneyland below:
“Introducing the celebration is Tohan Lege, the storyteller known as the Lore-weaver. Pursued by those in power who would silence his voice, Tohan adopted Black Spire as his home and wrote of its colorful history and the fiery spirit at its heart. His droid, who he fondly called Bard, allows us to hear the Lore-weaver in his own words, each night as Black Spire celebrates the Fire of the Rising Moons.
He met and spoke to anyone he could, and began to record its history. To ensure that the stories would endure, Tohan found an old astromech droid left behind at the Depot. The mechanics helped him get it working with scrap parts and luck. Tohan called the droid Bard, and together they recorded the Lore-weaver’s stories, until there were no more to tell.”
