Star Wars fans from around the world converge on the Indiana Convention Center for Star Wars Celebration III, a four-day fan-fest that preludes the May 19 release of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the final film in the Star Wars epic. Fan attendance is predicted to push the 35,000 person capacity of the convention center each day of the event. The first two "Celebration" conventions were scheduled before the release of the first two prequel films.
