Anyone who has dreamed of a full time Star Wars radio station will get their wish this weekend. Sirius XM announced that they’ll launch Star Wars Celebration Radio from August 12 at 6 p.m. EST through Sunday August 15 timed with the fifth annual Star Wars convention, Star Wars Celebration V, which takes place this weekend in Orlando, FL.

Celebration V, which is largely themed around the 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back this year, will feature attendees such as Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and many others. The highlight will be a one-on-one interview between Jon Stewart and Star Wars creator George Lucas.

Many of those stars will make appearances on the channel, which will also broadcast live coverage of many of the event’s panels. Hit the jump to find out which channels on your Sirius or XM to tune into and more.

I was a loyal and willing attendee of Star Wars Celebration II and III, which both took place in Indianapolis, IN and were timed around the final two prequels. And even though the movies were largely disappointing, the event was amazing. It was just so exciting to be around so many passionate fans plus the amount of panels, people, events and exclusives were just awesome. It’s heaven for Star Wars fans. If I was in Orlando, or hadn’t attended San Diego Comic-Con, I would definitely check this out.

That’s what’s so cool about this radio station – now I can STILL check it out. Plus, as a tip, you can get a free 3-day online trial of both Sirius and XM on their respective websites or through their iPhone and Android apps. I’m not sure if those trials will feature this channel, but you can always just pop on Opie & Anthony or Howard Stern if it doesn’t.

Star Wars Celebration Radio will be on XM 139 and Sirius 108.
