1st Starraco Wars Convention
The 1st Starraco Wars Convention arrives in the city of Tarragona on the 2nd and 3rd of December. Two days dedicated exclusively to the Star Wars theme for all lovers of the SAGA. The facilities will be filled with activities, exhibitions, conferences and an atmosphere that will transport you to the Universe created by the fantastic filmmaker George Lucas.
A playful proposal for the city which will accommodate the most loyal fans of the Star Wars episodes and also those who want to enjoy an attractive, fun and very striking event.
This will be the first edition of the Starraco Wars Convention born with the intention of becoming an annual event. The Terres de l'Ebre R2-T4 Star Wars Association are the organizers of the event. The initiative has the co-organization of the Palau Firal i de Congressos de Tarragona which finds in this initiative a very attractive offer for the city. The convention also features the collaboration of the nonprofit organization Star Props, dedicated to exhibitions and events especially from the Star Wars universe.
The dates of the convention have been chosen to encourage fans of the Star Wars SAGA to rejoice at the upcoming movie release of Episode VIII, Star Wars The Last Jedi. The last film will be released on December 15, two weeks after the great galactic encounter at the Palau Firal i de Congressos in Tarragona.
