Disney Confirms Bluey Experience for Animal Kingdom as Alton Towers Readies First Ride
The rollout favors character-led play in Florida, with a gentle family coaster launching at Alton Towers.
Overview
- Disney says Bluey and Bingo will lead an interactive play, dance, and photo experience at Conservation Station in Rafiki’s Planet Watch.
- The Animal Kingdom offering begins in summer 2026 and centers on up-close character interaction rather than a ride.
- Alton Towers will open Bluey: The Ride: Here Come The Grannies in spring 2026 inside CBeebies Land, the franchise’s first theme-park ride.
- The U.K. coaster features Bluey and Bingo in their Grannies personas, a gentle backyard-style layout, and an interactive queue where guests can spot Bluey’s house.
- Bluey’s strong streaming success and merchandise demand inform the parks strategy, and outcomes overseas could influence future Disney expansions that are not yet announced.
