The Mandalorian and Grogu have quickly become some of the most sought-after Star Wars characters at Walt Disney World. While there is no traditional meet-and-greet line, seeing Din Djarin walking through Batuu with Grogu instantly attracts crowds of excited guests. The pair feel as if they stepped directly out of the Disney+ series, making this one of the most exciting character encounters in Galaxy's Edge. For many guests, spotting Grogu may become one of the highlights of their entire visit.


Experience

The Mandalorian and Grogu roam throughout Galaxy's Edge, interacting with guests as they travel through Black Spire Outpost. While interactions are brief and unscheduled, guests often have opportunities for photos and memorable moments. Din Djarin remains fully in character while Grogu frequently steals the spotlight from his floating pram. Every appearance feels a little different, adding to the excitement of spotting them.


Atmosphere

The atmosphere shifts immediately whenever the Mandalorian appears. Guests gather quickly, cameras come out, and excitement spreads through Batuu. Since the pair move naturally through the land rather than standing in one location, the experience feels organic and immersive. It fits perfectly within the storytelling of Galaxy's Edge.
