Star Wars Troopers Stormed Foyleside - November 2007
More News >


Foyleside Shopping Centre was host to a platoon of Troopers from Star Wars on last night. Hundreds of Foyleside shoppers joined them in their effort to raise money for the very worthy ‘Children in Need’ appeal where they managed to raise £500 thanks to Foyleside.

Des Farrell, Foyleside Centre Manager said; ‘This was an excellent evening and all our shoppers welcomed our eclectic friends with the usual warm reception from Derry. We are delighted at the response of our shoppers and we will endeavour to bring them back to Derry very soon.




One of the storm troopers commented;

‘We were overwhelmed by the hospitality of the Derry people and this was a very successful event for us, particularly in our effort to raise funds for Children in Need. There is clearly a huge Star Wars fan club in the North West of Ireland and as a result of this we will be returning very soon to greet the fans another time’.

The Troopers are due to return to Foyleside over the next few weeks to support the 10,001 Santa’s Charity. Keep checking back to www.foyleside.co.uk and we will keep you posted of their next appearance.
