13 November 2024: Bluey’s World - one of the largest and most ambitious immersive events to be staged in Australia - made its highly-anticipated debut last night, transforming Brisbane into the ultimate celebration of Australia’s most beloved blue heeler family.

 

The opening celebrations, held at Northshore Pavilion in Hamilton, drew fans, families and famous faces, eager to immerse themselves in the wonder of Bluey’s World - the brand-new immersive For Real Life experience. The talented team from Ludo Studio, along with Melanie Zanetti (voice of Chilli) and David McCormack (voice of Bandit), joined the festivities.

 

“It’s such a special moment to see Bluey’s World come to life right here in my hometown where Bluey was created," said Melanie Zanetti, the voice of Chilli. "This show has such a big heart, and it’s incredible to see families stepping into Bluey’s universe and experiencing that same magic up close. I’m incredibly proud to be part of something that brings so much joy to people of all ages, and there’s no better place to celebrate it than here in Brisbane.”

 

With a buzz of excitement in the air, the doors to Bluey’s house swung open, as guests were treated to a first-hand experience of Bluey’s World.

 

Sam Moor, Producer, Ludo Studio said ‘‘The team behind Bluey spent hours and hours meticulously designing and drawing the backgrounds and neighbourhoods for the TV show that the whole world has come to love. So, we’re thrilled to now be able to give fans the opportunity to literally step into the world the team created - for real life. It’s really special and exciting for everyone.”

 

Bluey and Bingo made a special appearance, posing for photos and sharing hugs with excited kiddos and families. Guests were also treated to a special musical performance by Bluey composer Joff Bush, who was joined by Australian musician and songwriter Meg Washington, Australian entertainer and dancer Emma Watkins, and musician Jazz Darcy. The launch concluded with a spectacular Bluey-themed fireworks display that lit up the Brisbane sky. To relive the opening celebration, fans can follow the hashtag #bluey or @officialblueytv.
