A huge private Star Wars fan collection will be on display every day until 5 January next year in the Experimentarium building of Sofia Tech Park. The exhibits include vehicles, weapons and many other items from the science fiction setting of the space opera. The total value of the exhibit is over 100,000 euros."Star Wars is part of a cinematic legacy passed down from generation to generation, and the story, as well as composer John Williams' iconic soundtrack, still captivates young and old alike," say the organisers, inviting both parents and children alike to come and enjoy the exhibition.


The exhibition is privately owned by one of the UK's largest collectors. In Europe it has only been shown twice before, at the Spaceport Science Museum in Liverpool from 2017 to 2019 and in the summer of 2022 in Finland.
