Barnes & Noble stores nationwide will host a free Star Wars Reads Day on Oct. 5. Star Wars fans, young and old alike, are invited to dress as their favorite characters for exclusive giveaways and activities from more than 18 publishers of Star Wars-related books that will ensure Jedi and padawans from every age group will be delighted and entertained.

Stony Creek Marketplace store will feature Story Time, Star Wars Lego Movie with popcorn, activity pages, coloring and costume contest, and Yoda Soda Cantina all starting at 1 pm. There also is an adult trivia night at 7 pm.

In addition, Nook sellers will demonstrate the popular Angry Birds Star Wars game app on Nook HD+ and show fans the enormous variety of Star Wars novels, comics and magazines on the device’s spectacular HD screen. With Google Play on Nook HD and Nook HD+, customers have access to more than 700,000 Android apps and games, millions of songs and more.

“Our first Star Wars Reads Day last year was a huge hit with customers,” said Sarah DiFrancesco, director of business development for Barnes & Noble. “Stores are ramping up their event plans this year to make sure there’s something for the whole family, so we expect this year’s events to be even bigger and better. Our publishing partners have come through with really fun activities and giveaways. We think fans are going to turn out in force for these events.”

The Star Wars Reads Day event is free and open to the public. For further details, contact any Barnes & Noble store or visit the Barnes & Noble Store Locator.
