Artist Interviews
- Boba Fett Designer Collectible Bust by Unruly Industries and Jesse Hernandez
In the days leading up to Star Wars Celebration, as well as during the convention itself, we’ll interview artists and designers who have made Star Wars art and collectibles. Our first interview is with Jesse Hernandez AKA Urban Aztec. Alongside Unruly Industries, Jesse created the Boba Fett™ and Darth Vader™ Designer Collectible Busts that infuse Indigenous culture with pop culture. Tune in on Wednesday, May 25, at 2 PM PT as he answers questions about his life and creative process.
The other interviewees are yet to be announced! Make sure to follow our social media for updates about artist discussions right from the show floor.
Sideshow At Star Wars Celebration
Sideshow At Star Wars Celebration is a hybrid show â half con floor footage, half virtual hosting! During this desk show, our hosts will introduce segments from the show floor. These could be interviews, recordings, or anything else we want to show you that day. Then the audience and hosts can discuss the convention, plus play games like trivia in between videos.
For anyone not attending IRL, this is the perfect opportunity to get as close as you can to Star Wars Celebration. Watch every day from Thursday through Sunday on YouTube at 5 PM PT.
Game Shows
Bingo
Bingo is a classic game of chance. Players are given cards with a number grid, and they must try to obtain a full row or pattern of numbers as they are called by the host. Sideshowâs Bingo is an updated, virtual experience. Show up on Monday, May 23, when we go live at 12 PM PT for a chance to play and a chance to âBingo!â your way into some sweet Sideshow Rewards.
Trivial Cahoots
It wouldnât be Star Wars Celebration without a deep dive into the Temple records! Join for Trivial Cahoots, a game where the audience gets to participate LIVE. Youâll answer between 15-20 trivia questions using a mobile device as your buzzer. Correct answers will be reviewed by the Council. Winners get Sideshow Rewards for their account as well as bragging rights (but may not be granted the rank of Master).
Trivial Cahoots will happen on Tuesday, May 24, at 2 PM PT and Wednesday, May 25, at 11 AM PT. Join us and test your knowledge!
