This year is going to be a little different for us Star Wars fans. May the 4th is usually a day for us to celebrate Star Wars with our friends and family. From going out shopping for those great STAR WARS Day exclusives to trivia night at your local bar, there was always something to do. Well due to the Covid-19 pandemic all of that has changed. But, thanks to the Scum & Villainy Cantina we can be connected all day long with fans around the galaxy. On May 4th they will have a 24 hour livestream to celebrate our biggest day of the year from the safety of our homes.
Scum & Villainy STAR WARS Day Event
In a report from the Nerdist, Scum & Villainy owner J.C. Reifenberg wanted to do something special for STAR WARS Day. Here is what he told the Nerdist:
“May the 4th (STAR WARS Day) is a day that grew from a clever pun to become the biggest nerd holiday of them all. Everyone is a Star Wars fan on May the 4th, the same way that everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s day. With social distancing rules in place and people not able to gather outside of their homes, we wanted to create a place for fans to gather virtually, connect to other fans, and hopefully see something new and entertaining in the spirit of the holiday—for fans, by fans.”
What to expect
Yeah we all know this is not the way we planed for STAR WARS day to go. But at least we know we will have some great STAR WARS content at the click of the mouse. You will see some special guests throughout the day shuch as Kevin Smith, James Arnold Taylor, Sam Witwer and many more. Also retailers like Sideshow and Geeki Tiki will be involved as well. Maybe we will get some STAR WARS Day exclusives.

You will be able to watch this livestream starting at 12:01am PT on May the 4th on Scum & Villainy’s Facebook, Twitter, or Twitch. Also know that schedules can change at anytime.
