Celebrate star wars day with us
May the Fourth be with you on Saturday, May 4 at Comic Con Stockholm Summer! We invite everyone in Star Wars cosplay to join us in a Star Wars parade on Saturday at 3:30 pm. The parade will start in the entrance hall and go through the hall and then finish at the Heroes Main Stage, where we will witness our Special Guest Natalia Tena (who acted in The Mandalorian) become an honorary member in 501st Legion. Everyone, regardless of whether you joined the parade or not, is welcome to take part in this fantastic activity at about 3.45 pm on the Heroes Main Stage.
this is swedish garrison and r2 builders
Swedish Garrison is part of the 501st Legion, a costume group for people all over the world who enjoy recreating costumes and props from Star Wars and “The Bad guys”. They work within Sweden with troopers spread from Malmö to Piteå who protect our loyal imperial citizens from the activities of the rebels.
Their main business is making costumes and other accessories, and they have earned the nickname “Bad guys doing good” through their charity work. They participate in fairs and events with their costumes and props, visit children’s hospitals and collect money. Each year, the 501st Legion donates millions of dollars to charitable organizations around the world.
R2 Builders Sweden is a community of individual droid builders with a passion for Star Wars and Astromechs in particular.
They are not a formal club, but follow the rules and guidelines established by the R2 Builders Club.
Nordic Base
During the weekend, Nordic Base will also be at Comic Con Stockholm. Nordic Base is part of the “Rebel Legion” which is a Star Wars based costume fan club. Members create/obtain and wear costumes of the hero characters from the Star Wars saga (pilots, Jedi’s dignitaries, etc.) – so the good side, even if the Empire doesn’t agree. Nordic Base spreads the joy of Star Wars and together with the sister club Swedish Garrison (which is looking for rebels to capture) we show up where we are needed such as hospitals, children’s parties, fairs etc. for charity.
