For the first time ever, hit theatre tour Bluey’s Big Play will visit the UK following sell-out shows across Australia and the US and will arrive at The Bristol Hippodrome on Thu 15 Aug – Sun 18 Aug 2024.

Bluey’s Big Play, a brand-new theatrical adaptation of the BAFTA & Emmy® award-winning children’s television series produced by Ludo Studio which airs on Disney+ and CBeebies, will hit the road in December this year and tour the UK and Ireland until summer 2024.

With an original story by Bluey creator Joe Brumm and new music by Bluey composer, Joff Bush, Bluey’s Big Play will go on sale on Friday 30 June at 10am. 

Audiences of all ages will get to see Bluey, her younger sister Bingo and Mum & Dad Bandit and Chilli, as they’ve never seen them before, as Bluey & Her family embark on their first live theatre show, made just for you, featuring brilliantly created puppets, live actors, and iconic sets.

Since bursting on to TV screens in Australia in 2018, Bluey has enjoyed a plethora of critical success at home and abroad, recently winning a 2022 BAFTA Children & Young People Award in the International category and picking up its consecutive fourth AACTA Best Children’s Programme award to add to an International Emmy and numerous awards for craft and production around the world.
