There's something extra special waiting at Alton Towers CBeebies Land this Easter holiday... 

Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies!

Opening on Saturday 28th March, the world's first Bluey junior coaster invites little kiddos with big imaginations along for a ride!

Save 50% by booking online here

Bluey and Bingo dressed up as the Grannies, Janet and Rita, get up to some grannies-themed mischief through Bluey’s backyard, whisking you over gentle dips, around turns, and through colourful trees, flowers, and playful surprises.

Spot Bluey’s House in the interactive queue, take selfies, and enjoy fun play activities before your ride. And that’s not all, Bluey super-fans can meet Bluey and her family at the Bluey Live experience within Big Fun Show Time or stay for the ultimate Bluey sleepover at the award-winning CBeebies Land Hotel.

As well as a brand-new ride, audiences get to experience all the Bluey fun at Alton Towers Resort, including the popular Heeler family meet-and-greets and live experience within Big Fun Showtime.

Alton Towers Resort has unveiled a giant portrait of Bluey made from over 11,000 cans of beans to announce the opening date of the World’s first Bluey rollercoaster at CBeebies Land. 🎢

The artwork, which measures 20 by 15 metres and took 18 hours to complete, has appeared on the park’s iconic lawn, near CBeebies Land ahead of Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies! officially opening on March 28.

Featuring Bluey in her beloved granny disguise complete with headscarf, the installation comprises 11,494 tins.

Bean cans feature in the fan-favourite “Grannies” episode of the multi–Emmy® award-winning animated TV series, where Bluey and Bingo dress up as Janet and Rita - mischievous grannies with a habit for slipping on beans.

The giant installation featuring Bluey dressed as Janet, has brought one of the show’s most-loved alter egos to life at Alton Towers Resort, home to CBeebies Land and marks the countdown to the hotly anticipated opening day
