Podcast #6 - Davin Anderson of Galaxy Tours & Star Wars 50th Anniversary news

As we wind down the final days of 2025, let’s recap all the highlights from the many Star Wars events of the year. This past April I met Galaxy Tours owner Davin Anderson at the Japan Star Wars celebration in Tokyo. I’m excited to share a sneak peek of what’s been going on behind the scenes as he and the fans prepare for their next journey to Tunisia and Lucasfilm sites. (photo credit Makrem Larnaout) [https://www.instagram.com/makrem_larnaout/] The next two years of focus for fans is all about celebrating the 50th anniversary of the production and release Episode IV - A New Hope. I grew up on Star Wars. I remember when it was first launched. I recall the joy of getting a Princess Kneessaa Ewok for Christmas and losing a Hoth Han Solo action figure somewhere in my front yard in that Chicago blizzard of 78. Can you still feel the buzz and nostalgia that the galactic series has brought to you over the years?
