The official poster for 2015's Star Wars Celebration has officially debuted, showcasing numerous characters from the original trilogy.

Hero Complex revealed the image earlier today, which begins the build-up to the four-day Star Wars fan festival next year. It features Darth Vader, Han Solo, Princess Leia, a Storm Trooper, and an X-Wing/Tie Fighter dogfight.

The Star Wars Celebration, an event in which Star Wars fans and creators unite for a special honoring of George Lucas' universe, has occurred annually since 1999. The event is similar to a convention, but also features interactive events like diorama building, filmmaking presentations, and even "Jedi training." And with Star Wars: The Force Awakens' 2015 release, the celebration is anticipating record attendance. In fact, ticket sales are fare ahead of where they usually are at this time of year, Mary Franklin, a fan relations official for Lucasfilms, told Hero Complex.

"The Celebration recipe is really built so much on fan passion and what the fans bring to the show," Franklin explained. "It's really the same fan festival, just bigger."

The 2015 Star Wars Celebration will take place at the Anaheim Convention Center from April 16-19, 2015.
