Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Gets Brighter with New Light Fixtures at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Batuu just leveled up its glow game. New light fixtures have been installed above a popular seating area in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and they blend right into that perfectly imperfect “junky spaceport” aesthetic we love. If you’ve ever grabbed a Ronto Wrap and hunted for a shady bench near the path to Toy Story Land, this is your pit stop. Now, it comes with a little extra illumination from sleek horizontal light bars mounted directly above the benches.

The new fixtures stretch across the seating area in Batuu East, adding practical lighting while keeping the land’s immersive storytelling intact. They resemble weathered pipes, complete with that rusty, lived in finish that makes Galaxy’s Edge feel like a real outpost on the Outer Rim. The vertical light poles flanking the benches were already there, but these horizontal additions are brand new. The result? More light for nighttime snack breaks without sacrificing the intergalactic vibe.

It is always interesting to see small updates like this in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. While they may not be headline grabbing ride announcements, these details can make a big difference for guests relaxing between missions on Rise of the Resistance or Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. A brighter rest area means better visibility after sunset and maybe even better late night photos with that Canon Rebel in hand. Batuu is still scrappy and industrial, just with a little more wattage.
