Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge allows guests to enter and become a part of the Star Wars stories. When visiting Batuu and become a part of the world that Disney has created, there is a need to become even more a part of the story as one interacts with its inhabitants, build lightsabers, build droids, and pilot the Millennium Falcon! The logical next step is to look the part.
While the Disneyland Policy still remains in place, there are still ways to dress the part when visiting Black Spire Outpost. As stated in the policy, costumes may not be worn by anyone 14 years of age or older. However, bounding is completely acceptable and encouraged. Bounding is basically dressing in outfits that are inspired by the worlds of Star Wars. The Disney Parks Blog has shared some guidelines for successful bounding while at Batuu.
Acceptable Bounding
– Bounding: piecing together traditional clothing items that when worn together, serve as a recognizable tribute to Star Wars characters
– Batuuan attire: wearing outfits inspired by the villagers of Batuu—muted tones, vests, layers, etc.
Unacceptable Bounding
– All robes or military-style attire
– Masks, face paint, elaborate headwear, blasters or holsters (lightsabers are allowed) or hard items such as body armor, helmets or kneepads
– Full character suits
Adding themed outfits to your visit to Batuu can really add a lot of fun to the visit. However, this all must be done within the boundaries of Disneyland’s policies. This includes wearing proper footwear. What is your favorite way to bound when visiting Batuu? Do you have any tips or ideas? Share them in the comments below!
