ABOUT THE 501st legion french garisson
The 501st Legion is an international club founded in the United States in 1997 by Albin Johnson and present in some sixty countries. The seriousness of its members has earned them official inclusion in the Star Wars universe. In France, the 501st Legion has been represented by the "French Garrison" since 2002 and has 236 members. The association is made up entirely of volunteers and was formed with the aim of bringing together fans of costumes from the Star Wars universe under a collective identity and, above all, making dreams come true for young and old alike by allowing them to meet the iconic characters from the saga.
Stormtroopers, Clone Troopers, Sith Lords, and the members of the 501st Legion are waiting for you at Japan Expo with their costumes.
