Appearance Request

Please use this form to request an event and/or appearance. If you have general comments, questions, or technical issues, please use our Contact Us formNote that requests should be made about 2-3 months prior to your event. If you have issues submitting the form, please try another browser such as Chrome.

Please read before clicking Submit: The Dark Empire is a volunteer organization and does not accept payment for appearances. Our membership consists of volunteers, most of whom hold full-time jobs outside of Legion activities. Our ability to satisfy an event request depends on a number of factors including availability of members, location and time of the event, and the significance of the event. Events which directly or indirectly benefit the community and/or charity organizations generally receive a better chance of a TDE appearance than private functions (e.g., birthday parties, weddings). As a general rule, The Dark Empire does not appear at events or functions that are non-Star Wars-related unless coordinated through Lucasfilm Ltd. The Dark Empire focuses on custom Star Wars Sith and Bounty Hunter/Smuggler characters, but if you desire Jedi or Rebel characters. Imperial characters, or Mandalorians at your event, we recommend inquiring with our sister organizations the Rebel Legion, the 501st Legion and the Mando Mercs.

Also of note, at the request of Lucasfilm, LTD. it is the policy of our organization to refrain from any lightsaber dueling, mock fighting or demonstrations between the characters and the public and amongst the characters in a public setting where injuries could occur. If you are looking for lightsaber performances inquire with our sister organization Saber Guild. Thank you for your understanding.


Anyone submitting a request through this form should be someone who has authority of the event and should be over 18 years of age. The information collected above will be used in relation to your request of an appearance from us; clicking submit gives your consent for us to do so, as outlined in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
