This just might be the droid you’re looking for after all! Disney has shared that a modified R1 series astromech droid named Bard will be seen beginning tonight at the Black Spire Spaceport in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge during “Fire of the Rising Moons” at Disneyland Park!

Fire of the Rising Moons

This new fireworks show offers a special view of Disneyland’s fireworks with a musical accompaniment that includes selections from John Williams’ scores from the films! You can watch it from Black Spire Spaceport right next to the Millennium Falcon, the TIE Echelon docking platform, and the speeder garage.

The show is narrated by “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.”

Legend has it that Tohan “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.”
