My local one has a time traveler weekend (I presume others do, too). Trek has time travel, Star Wars does not, but there's always Storm Troopers etc. Dr Who shows up a bunch, too, which also makes sense.
Now that I think about it, I really want to see a herd of those inflatable T-Rex costumes for it...
If you want to be super pedantic (and I do), time travel may not be necessary for the stormtroopers to work.
Star Wars is a long time ago (as of 1977), in a galaxy far away. A ship full of stormtroopers could have come through a wormhole to medieval Earth. Or depending on how long ago Star Wars is, could even have been cryogenically frozen, drifting towards Earth for ages.
Time travelled forward, so to speak 😄
