I'm betting this will be 2012, so like they did with CV, they'll start promoting it 8-9 months ahead.  The big rumor is Indianapolis again, and I SO hope that's true!

Lol.  I'm hoping I'll actually be able to go to this one; I bet it was way cooler than the trip I took to Philadelphia, instead of...

Here we go folks. Looks like FL again.

After the impressive (most impressive) success of last year's Empire-themed Star Wars Celebration V, we are thrilled to announce that the biggest party this side of the galaxy, Star Wars Celebration VI, is setting down August 23 - 26, 2012 back at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida!

That is the first week of school for me, there is no way I could get off for that time frame daggone it! I guess I have a year to work on it though.

Yeah, I thought I would melt in Florida in August last time, but it was pretty much just a very short walk from the motel to the convention center which is really just surrounded with hotel and motel type places. It was hot, don't get me wrong, but pretty much just a ten minute thing to and from each day, and I wouldn't let that deter me again to be honest.

The biggest thing I see is the fact that this date is going to coincide with most parents start up time for their kids in school. I told myself when I go again that I want my daughter to be with me so she can have the fun I saw so many kids having last time and I can't fathom how some parents, which I feel is probably most of us, are gonna be able to have our kids give up their first week of school to do this. If it was the third or fourth week I could probably handle it, but surely parents don't want their kids to start the year with one week's worth of work to make up before they even start. Ofcourse with the early announcing I guess that can give us time to hopefully plan around it, but was hoping if it was Florida again they would have an early August date or even a September or October scenarion. Daggone I told myself I wasn't gonna miss anymore of em. Pat and I just had a blast. If you are a Star Wars Fan this is one of the must attend events at least once I would say.

That's interesting... I wonder if enough parents complain that they will move the date. I don't see why they can't move it one or two weeks.
