Books-A-Million Sweepstakes Winner Will Attend Star Wars Celebration

Books-A-Million is sending two Star Wars fans to Anaheim, California to take part in one of the largest Star Wars fan festivals ever. The 2015 Star Wars Celebration is being held at the Anaheim Convention Center from April 16-19 and Books-A-Million is providing tickets to all four days of the event, airfare, and hotel accommodations through its Star Wars Celebration sweepstakes for the winner and a guest. There is no purchase necessary to enter, just go to www.booksamillion.com/starwarssweepstakes and fill out the registration form by March 31. Complete contest rules can be found at Star Wars sweepstakes rules.

“We’re so excited to lead the way to the big Star Wars Celebration,” said Melanie Smith, Director of Marketing for Books-A-Million. “To be giving someone the chance to attend this once-in-a-lifetime Star Wars festival is quite an honor for us. Star Wars is a terrific part of our culture and sending two people to be a part of the biggest Star Wars festival ever is amazing!”

Sweepstakes winners will be able to meet some of the actors that helped make Star Wars the cultural phenomenon that it is today. Over 20 cast and crew of the Star Wars saga will be at Celebration. Meeting and getting the autograph of Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia), Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) and Ian McDiarmid (Emperor Palpatine) among others will make this an unforgettable experience for the sweepstakes winner.

The director chosen to bring the Star Wars saga to the next generation with Episode VII: The Force Awakens, J.J. Abrams, will also make an appearance along with Producer and Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy.

In addition to meeting Star Wars legends, the winner of the Star Wars Celebration sweepstakes will be able to take part in numerous events, including a Celebration cosplay contest, the Star Wars Rebels season two premiere and the debut of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith in 3D.
