Bluey - the loveable, inexhaustible, Blue Heeler dog, who lives with her Mum, Dad and her little sister, Bingo in the beloved Emmy® and BAFTA award-winning animated series of the same name - will be joining the line up at CBeebies Land, Alton Towers Resort, from Easter.
From Saturday, March 23rd, fans of the hit TV show, which broadcasts daily on CBeebies, will be able to meet the Bluey costume character each day in an area of the Staffordshire theme park dedicated to CBeebies, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary this year.
Bluey, created and written by Joe Brumm and produced by the multiple Emmy® Award-winning Ludo Studio for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and BBC Studios Kids & Family, is the latest name to join the fun-packed line up in CBeebies Land that already includes popular CBeebies friends such as Hey Duggee, Iggle Piggle, Upsy Daisy, Bing and Flop, Ubercorn, Peter Rabbit and the Teletubbies.
In the hit TV series, Bluey uses her limitless energy to play games that unfold in unpredictable and hilarious ways bringing her family and the whole neighbourhood into her world of fun. She also showcases the joyful simplicity that can be found in families turning everyday events like going to the shops or visiting the doctor into unique adventures, bringing to life how children learn and grow through play.
“As a fellow Australian, I am personally very excited to welcome Bluey to the Resort. I know this joy and excitement will be shared by so many families across the UK. The 2024 season will mark the 10th anniversary of CBeebies Land and Bluey’s arrival is one of many ways we are looking to make it memorable for young guests and their families.”
Bianca Sammut, Divisional Director for Alton Towers Resort
