Signage Appears for Renamed 'Docking Bay 6' in Galaxy's Edge at Hollywood Studios

Disney has added new wall signage designating a previously unmarked area as “Docking Bay 6” in Galaxy’s Edge East.

Visitors to Blackspire Outpost at Hollywood Studios might notice this new signage for “Docking Bay 6” near the First Order Cargo store, along the western edge of the the Galaxy’s Edge area.

The wall framing this garage-esque structure was previously unmarked. This new sign echoes the quick service restaurant, Docking Bay 7, further into the center of the Star Wars-themed land. The typeface is English but evocative of Aurebesh – the standardized alphabet of the Star Wars galaxy – similar to some other signage in the area such as those for restrooms.

The space was previously utilized for guests of the Galactic Starcruiser to transit between the park and the hotel. Following the Starcruiser’s closure, the space has flexibly operated for other services including merchandise distribution on Star Wars day and more commonly as a PhotoPass location.

While Disney has not made a formal announcement regarding the new addition, this change could suggest future efforts to utilize the space in a more permanent form. Or it could be a way to designate the area on a map as needed for flexible use in the future.
