Star Wars Fan Breakfast Announced for SDCC! Caleb Hamilton, June 11, 2013June 11, 2013 The countdown to San Diego Comic-Con 2013 has begun and we’re a little over a month away from the show. Leading up to the start of SDCC, many events, such as concerts, screenings and meet-ups will be announced. Some of these will be on-site (at the convention center) and others will be off-site (in the areas around the convention center). One such event was just announced by Star Wars Action News, a breakfast for Star Wars fans. Get the details after the jump! Disney may be holding Star Wars news from SDCC for their own convention, D23, but that doesn’t mean the franchise won’t have a presence. As many con-goers know, Fridays have always been “Star Wars Day” at the convention, so Star Wars Action News will be hosting the 3rd Annual Star Wars Fan Breakfast on Friday, July 19th at 7:30 A.M. at the Edgewater Grill. Here are the full details: On Friday, July 19th at 7:30 am, Star Wars Action News will be hosting the 3nd Annual Star Wars Fan Breakfast! When Lucasfilm ended the Star Wars Fan Club, the long tradition of starting “Star Wars Day” at San Diego Comic Con with the Star Wars Fan Club breakfast went with it. But in 2011 Marjorie and Arnie started a new tradition, the Star Wars Fan Breakfast! The event is being held at the Edgewater Grill, walking distance from the convention. Door prizes are being donated by Star Wars Action News, Hallmark, Random House Audio, Uncle Milton, Diamond Select Toys, and more! The Edgewater Grill is opening 30 minutes early just for this event, 7:30 a.m., plenty of time for chat, food, and then get to the con when it opens! The event has no cost, just pay for what you order off the menu. Edgewater has agreed to do separate checks for each party. But we do need to tell Edgewater how may people to expect, so please RSVP the number of people who will be attending to sdccfanbreakfast@swactionnews.com before July 10th. Will you be attending this event? This is a different off-site event, being that it’s a breakfast instead of an evening event. You can expect more events announcements soon. MovieViral will be in attendance again this year, covering all things viral! San Diego Comic-Con 2013 runs from July 17th-July 21st! Source: SDCC Blog Comic-Con Conventions Events #SDCCStar Wars
