Star Wars Day 2026: Next Wave of Starbucks Discovery Series Mugs Have Arrived

New Galactic Treasures for Star Wars Day

May the 4th is officially here, and for Disney fans and coffee lovers alike, that means it is time for a new release in the Starbucks Discovery Series. This year, the collection expands with three highly anticipated mugs representing pivotal locations from the Star Wars saga: Naboo, Endor, and Crait. Whether you are a collector of the previous ‘Been There’ series or you are just starting your Discovery Series shelf, these 2026 releases offer a high level of detail that captures the essence of each planet.

Journey to Naboo

The Naboo mug serves as a tribute to the prequel era. The design features iconic imagery from the Galactic Senate and the lush landscapes of the planet. Collectors will spot Queen Amidala in her signature red royal gown, a striking visual that stands out against the planetary backdrop. Action fans will appreciate the inclusion of the ‘Duel of the Fates,’ featuring Darth Maul facing off against Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn. To round out the Naboo experience, the mug also highlights the Gungan culture with a look at the underwater bongo pods where Jar Jar Binks and his people reside.

The Forest Moon of Endor

For those who prefer the original trilogy, the Endor mug is a nostalgic trip to the forest moon. This design focuses heavily on the Battle of Endor and the Rebellion’s victory. You will find Princess Leia and the lovable Wicket the Ewok front and center. One of the more playful details includes Chewbacca piloting a captured AT-ST, a key moment from Return of the Jedi. An Imperial Shuttle is also featured, representing the high stakes of the mission to take down the second Death Star’s shield generator.

The Mineral World of Crait

The third addition to the 2026 lineup takes us to the sequel trilogy with the planet Crait. First introduced in The Last Jedi, this mineral planet is famous for its red soil covered by a thin layer of white salt. The mug captures the Resistance’s desperate stand against the First Order, featuring Rey using the Force to clear the path of rocks. Wildlife fans will recognize the crystalline Vulptex (the ‘salt fox’), and the design wouldn’t be complete without the V-4X-D ski speeders kicking up that iconic red dust.

Collecting the Set

If you don’t have enough cabinet space for three full-sized mugs, Starbucks and the Disney Store have released a Discovery Series Ornament Set. This bundle includes miniature versions of the Naboo, Endor, and Crait mugs. These are perfect for holiday decor or for fans who prefer a smaller display footprint. These items are currently available at the Disney Store online, and with the Disneyland 70th Anniversary celebrations in full swing, you may also find them popping up at major retail locations like Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida or the Downtown Disney District in California.
