Alton Towers Resort’s Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! to open on March 28th

Alton Towers Resort’s Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! will open on March 28th.

In addition, there are plans to introduce additional Bluey themed hotel rooms at the CBeebies Land Hotel.

To celebrate the news, a giant portrait of Bluey made from over 11,000 cans of beans has appeared on Alton Towers’ iconic lawn.

“Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! is all about celebrating energy, play and those everyday moments families love about the show,” said Howard Ebison, Vice President of Alton Towers Resort.

“The ‘Grannies’ episode is a firm favourite with our guests, so creating a giant Bluey made from more than 11,000 bean cans felt like the perfect way to mark the countdown to opening day. It’s playful, unexpected and unmistakably Bluey – and we can’t wait to welcome families from March 28th to experience the world’s first Bluey coaster right here at Alton Towers Resort.”

Natasha Spence, Events Director, Live Entertainment at BBC Studios, added: “‘Grannies’ is an iconic episode of Bluey. We also know that fans associate beans with Bluey and Bingo dressing up as Janet and Rita.

“Seeing this fantastic on-screen detail brought to life in such an imaginative way, truly celebrates the countdown to the opening of Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! at CBeebies Land at Alton Towers Resort. We are delighted to be working with the team at Alton Towers to create the world’s first Bluey coaster for families across the UK to enjoy this spring Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! is specifically designed for pre-schoolers and young families who are taken on a journey through Bluey’s Backyard.”
