ANOTHER Unique Meet and Greet Returns to Disney's Hollywood Studios

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away… .

A little round droid stole the hearts and minds of everyone in the Star Wars sequel trilogy. His name was BB-8 and for a while, you could meet him in Disney World. After Disney World reopened in 2020, though, the BB-8 meet and greet disappeared — until now.

That’s right, BB-8 is back at Star Wars Launch Bay in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and guests can meet him again! When we visited him, he was at the perfect level for pictures, thanks to the stand he sits on.

There wasn’t a PhotoPass photographer or an automated system there to take photos during our visit, however, there was a Cast Member available to take photos with our phones.

BB-8 joins Darth Vader and Chewbacca at Star Wars Launch Bay. So be sure to stop in and say hello!

For a more casual meet and greet experience, many restaurants at Disney World have also brought back (or are bringing back soon) character dining experiences — here are all the dining spots you can now book for character dining! We highly recommend making advance dining reservations as soon as you can, though — these restaurants fill up quickly!
