- "It is an honor to be here for this momentous occasion. The pride I feel for this planet cannot be put into words. Eight-hundred and forty-seven years ago Naboo joined the Republic. And tonight we celebrate that union."
- ―Sheev Palpatine
The Festival of Light was a Naboo holiday held annually since the planet Naboo joined the Galactic Republic[1] in 867 BBY.[source?]
During the Clone Wars, in 20 BBY,[2] the eight hundred and forty-seventh Festival of Light saw a group of bounty hunters hired by Count Dooku attempting to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine.[1]
