| SDCC 2015: ‘Star Wars’ Concert Ends With Fireworks, Glowing Lightsabers (Video) |

People were lining up as early as late Wednesday/early Thursday for the Star Wars panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2015, which was held at 5:30PM PST Friday evening. This was pretty unbelievable, as it was already known that they wouldn’t be showing any new trailers for the movie. Then again, this is Star Wars we’re talking about here. As it turns out, committing that much time to waiting in line was worth it for many. In addition to seeing the cast live and in person and being shown an excellent behind-the-scenes video focusing on the incredible practical effects being used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, director J.J. Abrams invited the entire 6,500-person audience to a special concert of Star Wars music by San Diego Symphony nearby at Embarcadero Marina. Those who attended the concert were given a glowing lightsaber to wave around joyously during the concert, and it was all wrapped up with a fireworks display. You can see some videos of the event below.
