On May 17, 2013, Walt Disney World ended the first day of Star Wars Weekends with the debut of this year's Hyperspace Hoopla. This time, Emperor Palpatine took over the show, making it Palpatine's Hyperspace Hoopla, beginning with a dance battle between Stormtroopers and the Cantina Band. Then began the ultimate battle: The Dance-Off With the Star Wars Stars.
