Let’s dive into what you can expect as Bluey and Bingo bring their unique brand of fun to Disney!
Bluey & Bingo's Grand Debut at Disneyland Park: A Fairytale in Fantasyland
The magic officially kicks off at the Disneyland Resort, where Bluey and Bingo will make their grand entrance on March 22, 2026. Disneyland Park is set to transform, offering an immersive experience that will delight fans of all ages. The heart of the action will be at the Fantasyland Theatre, which is reimagined as Bluey’s school, inviting guests to participate in a vibrant fair.
Imagine stepping into a world where creativity reigns supreme! At the Fantasyland Theatre, Bluey and Bingo won't just be meeting and greeting; they'll be starring alongside a talented troupe of comedic actors and musicians. Together, they will bring the best of the music and games from beloved Bluey episodes to life. Get ready to dance along with the sisters, perhaps even master a round of fan-favorite games like Keepy Uppy – but watch out for that balloon! Beyond the stage, the fun continues with interactive environments like a life-sized gnome village and a whimsical fairy garden, perfect for imaginative play and photo opportunities that will capture those precious family memories.
Adding to the excitement, guests at Disneyland will have the chance to see beloved supporting characters from the show, like The Grannies and the mischievous Chattermax, adding layers of authentic Bluey charm to the experience. And what's a fair without delicious treats? The Troubadour Tavern will be serving up foods inspired by the animated series, allowing you to taste a piece of Bluey’s world. This comprehensive approach ensures that Bluey’s arrival at Disneyland is more than just a character meet-and-greet; it’s an entire festival celebrating the joy and imagination that the show embodies.
A Wild Adventure Awaits at Disney’s Animal Kingdom: Bluey at Disney World
For those planning a magical getaway to Florida, the wait to experience Bluey at Disney World will culminate in summer 2026. Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom, a park celebrated for its dedication to wildlife and conservation, will become the next incredible stop for Bluey and Bingo. This new experience is set to combine the playful spirit of the Heeler family with Animal Kingdom's unique focus on nature and discovery, creating an adventure unlike any other.
Guests will find Bluey and Bingo at Conservation Station, a fitting location that emphasizes learning and appreciation for the natural world. Here, you'll have the fantastic opportunity to meet the duo and snap some unforgettable pictures alongside your favorite Blue Heeler pals. But the fun doesn't stop at just greetings! In a delightful twist that truly fits Animal Kingdom, guests will be invited to play popular games from Bluey episodes, reimagined with an animal theme. Picture a butterfly-themed "Keepy-Uppy," where the challenge is to keep a virtual butterfly aloft, or perhaps other games that involve playful interactions with animal sounds or movements. These imaginative adaptations promise to engage children in a way that's both entertaining and subtly educational.
Beyond the character interactions, the Bluey experience at Animal Kingdom offers a unique opportunity to learn about animals native to Bluey’s home country of Australia. This educational component adds significant value, allowing families to connect Bluey's fictional world to the real-world wonders of Australian wildlife. This thoughtful integration of entertainment and education highlights Disney’s commitment to inspiring curiosity in young minds.

Setting Sail with Bluey and Bingo: Disney Cruise Line Experiences
The Bluey and Bingo fun isn’t confined to the land; it’s also taking to the high seas aboard select Disney Cruise Line sailings! In fact, Bluey and Bingo made their initial splash on the Disney Cruise Line even before their park debuts, thrilling guests on Disney Wonder sailings originating from Australia and New Zealand through 2026. This early introduction allowed cruisers to get a taste of the Heeler family's infectious energy, and now, these experiences are expanding and becoming a staple on more voyages.
A Disney Cruise Line vacation offers a unique and intimate way to interact with characters, and Bluey and Bingo are no exception. Beyond traditional meet-and-greets, the cruise line has curated a lineup of high-energy, family-friendly activities designed to get everyone moving and laughing. Start your day with the lively "Wakey Wakey," a morning celebration that sets a joyful tone for the day ahead. For those who love a bit of mystery and a lot of dancing, "Who’s Behind the Curtain" is a family game show that culminates in an epic dance party for all participants.
As the day winds down, the "Pyjama Bash" offers a perfect evening activity, featuring freeze dancing, interactive games, and a special character appearance. From scavenger hunts that encourage exploration to creative crafts, there’s no shortage of ways to immerse your family in the world of Bluey while at sea. These curated experiences are designed to foster connection, imagination, and plenty of opportunities to create cherished family memories against the backdrop of an ocean adventure.
Planning Your Bluey-Themed Disney Vacation: Tips & Tricks
With Bluey and Bingo’s arrival imminent, planning your Disney vacation in 2026 requires a bit of strategy to maximize your family’s fun. Here are some actionable tips to help you make the most of your Bluey-themed adventure:
- Book Early: Character debuts, especially for beloved IPs like Bluey, tend to draw massive crowds. Secure your park reservations and resort accommodations as soon as your travel dates are firm. For Disney Cruise Line, popular sailings often sell out months in advance.
- Prioritize Your Bluey Experience: If seeing Bluey and Bingo is a top priority, allocate dedicated time in your park touring plan. For Disneyland, head to Fantasyland Theatre early. For Bluey at Disney World’s Animal Kingdom, make your way to Conservation Station soon after rope drop or during traditionally lighter crowd periods.

- PhotoPass is Your Friend: Invest in Disney’s PhotoPass service (or Genie+ with PhotoPass benefits) to capture professional-quality photos with Bluey and Bingo without the hassle of managing your own camera. These memories are priceless!
- Engage with the Theme: Encourage your kids to wear Bluey-themed attire or bring their favorite Bluey plushie to enhance the immersion. Imagine the joy of meeting Bluey while wearing a matching t-shirt!
- Embrace the Imagination: Bluey is all about imaginative play. Prepare your kids by re-watching episodes and discussing which games they might want to play with Bluey and Bingo. This builds anticipation and helps them engage fully with the experiences.
- Consider Off-Peak Times: If your schedule allows, visiting during less crowded seasons (e.g., late January, February, late August, September) can lead to shorter wait times and a more relaxed experience with the characters.
