International Star Wars Fandom’ with Gerald Home (Tessek, Mon Calamari Officer) wasn’t just the first panel at Celebration Europe II, it was also the panel where the return of S.W.O.R.A., the Star Wars Outer Rim Alliance, was announced.

Its purpose is to bring fanclubs and fans from different countries together and to enable them to share experiences, knowledge and information about their local Star Wars activities. The ambassador of S.W.O.R.A. is actor Gerald Home, who is also one of the original co-founders of this alliance. The councilmembers are Yildiz Savaslari from Turkey, TeeKay-421 from Belgium and Star Wars New Zealand.
