Forest Moon Festival

Calling fans of all ages to join us in a North Coast celebration of the Star Wars Universe--here on the Forest Moon of Endor, home of the Ewoks!  Please click the "Visit Website link" above for complete detail and schedule.

This year, the Forest is especially strong with the guest lineup, including Kyle Newman, director of Fanboys and a beloved voice in the Star Wars community, and the team behind Rebel Force Radio, one of the largest and internationally popular Star Wars podcasts, Jason Swank and Jimmy “Mac” McInerney. Their presence promises a weekend filled with galactic insights, unforgettable conversations, and deep dives into the franchise and fandom. Attendees can catch them at exclusive appearances throughout both Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, making this a truly unforgettable Forest Moon Festival.

The Forest Moon Festival grew out of a passion for film and love of our beautiful region, and all it has to offer.  It began with the vision of the Humboldt • Del Norte Film Commission, to embrace one of the great film franchises of all time, STAR WARS and it's choice to cast our region as the Forest Moon of Endor-- the home of the Ewoks, some 40 years ago!
​
Our hope is that by inviting fans of all ages to come see the stunning filming locations featured in STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI and attend screenings of the film, it will also give them a chance to discover all the Redwood Coast has to offer in natural beauty, hospitality, arts, and culture.

The Forest Moon Festival team comes from backgrounds in film, theater, and art-- And we are thrilled to work with businesses, pop-ups, events, and community partners throughout Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, who are creating their own little corner of the STAR WARS universe!
