Two of the best Lego Star Wars specials will soon be available to stream for free on YouTube
There’s no sugar-coating it: Star Wars just gave fans a fantastic, amazing, and epic – yes, all three – holiday surprise. Two of the most iconic and well-received Lego Star Wars specials are appearing on YouTube for free, meaning you can watch them without paying anything.
Star Wars wastes no time. Right now you can view the iconic one Lego Star Wars Holiday Special free on YouTube from 2020 – especially on the Star Wars Kids YouTube channel. Like the 1978 original, this Lego version will feature a long list of Star Wars characters celebrating ‘Life Day’. Expect to see Rey, Kylo Ren, Chewbacca, Finn, C3P0, R2D2 and countless others.
It’s also a good length – just over 45 minutes – and is free for a limited time. So if you’re looking for a great movie to watch with the whole family this Thanksgiving or later this holiday season, you’re in luck. You can find it here on YouTube, but if you have a smart TV or one of the best streamers connected, you can also watch it on a larger screen.
Once you click play, select shortly after the events of Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker and embark on an adventure with Rey as you encounter countless greats from the series, and just wait for ‘Life Day’. That’s all I’ll say.
And while not available immediately, in just a few days, on December 5, 2024, a more recent release has won fans over. The four-part series – LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy – arrives for free on YouTube and answers Star Wars’ ‘What If…’ question. Just as you can create whatever you want with Lego bricks, this series rebuilds the universe in some wonderfully fun ways. You’ll encounter the long-rumored but never actually shown “Darth Jar Jar,” a Luke Skywalker who never left Tatooine, and a version of Darth Vader who never turned to the dark side.
Both the Lego Star Wars Holiday Special And Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy are just fun to watch, and it’s a big win that we get free access to them this holiday season. I, for one, hope it’s a trend that Lucas Film continues, and that Disney Plus could potentially copy for other properties.
In the meantime, sit back, fill a glass with blue milk and enjoy the Holiday Special. And once you’re done with that, check out all the new Star Wars movies and Disney Plus shows to watch next.
