Cloud City is a fictional floating city on Bespin, a planet in the Star Wars universe which appears in the film The Empire Strikes Back. The city floats among the clouds and is home to Lando Calrissian and his bionic assistant, Lobot. It is a mining colony used to mine Tibanna gas, which is used for weapons and hyperdrives.

The city is patroled by cloud cars, which escorted the Millenium Falcon on its entrance to Bespin.

The city is the setting for the famous line in Empire in which Darth Vader informs Luke Skywalker that he is Luke's father, which was something Obi-Wan Kenobi had neglected to tell young Skywalker.
