Three Upcoming Releases at Hardywood Park

The Galaxy is too large for just one fandom so on May the 4th, 2019 let’s come together to celebrate them all, especially the biggest of them all, STAR WARS!

All galactic fandoms (Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, The Orville, Battlestar Galactica, Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, Firefly, Stargate, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Fifth Element, Alien, Mars Attacks, and so many more) are welcomed and encouraged to don your own insignia, stripes, costumes/cosplay, bow ties, towels or even your galactic tees.

True, this day is known as INTERNATIONAL STAR WARS DAY – so we expect many to pay homage to that Galactic fandom – but if you are a fan of any galactic sci-fi realm we welcome and encourage you to join us on May the 4th (Be With You) in downtown Richmond (non-Star Wars costumes and fandoms welcomed!)
