'Bluey' coming to Disney parks and cruise line
Bluey, a blue heeler dog from the children’s show of the same name, will be making her theme park debut at Disneyland and Walt Disney World next year. Walt Disney Co. also announced that the character will join the Disney Cruise Line as well.
“Beginning in January 2025, onboard Disney Cruise Line voyages originating from Australia and New Zealand, families can interact with Bluey and her sister, Bingo, like never before. From special meet-and-greets to an interactive and clue-filled game that ends in a dance party featuring Bluey’s signature moves, families in the region can embark on a magical holiday with their favorite blue heeler,” the company said in a news release.
The company will share more details about how guests can meet Bluey and her family at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort in the coming months.
The announcement comes amid an expanded partnership between Disney and BBC Studios, the commercial arm of the BBC that distributes the popular Australian animated series, and Ludo Studio, which produced the program.
It’s not completely unusual for Disney to highlight other intellectual property in its theme parks. For example, the Star Wars and Muppets attractions were in place at Disneyland and Walt Disney World before Disney bought LucasFilm and Jim Henson Productions, respectively.
The companies also announced that a Bluey movie will be released theatrically in 2027, with Disney leading distribution.
The show follows a family of cartoon dogs who live in Brisbane, Australia.
