Mark Hamill will attend this year’s Star Wars Celebration which is being held in London in July.

Hamill wil be at the event which is being held at London’s Excel Centre from July 15 to 17.

He’s attending as a “Spotlight Guest”, and Lucasfilm has also announced that Hamill would be signing autographs for fans and will be a guest on panels as well.

He’s the first of the big name guests to be announced and as Episode VIII is filming in the UK at the moment I doubt he’ll be the last.

Warwick Davis will also appear as an on-stage host.

The Star Wars Celebration takes place every two years – the last one was held in Anaheim, California, in 2015 and attracted a lot of attention as it was just before he release of The Force Awakens.

You can find out more information at the event’s official website.
