Hey Thrill Seekers,
🐶 Bluey is Coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom
It’s official Bluey is coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
Disney has confirmed that the brand-new Bluey’s Wild World at Conservation Station will officially open on 26 May 2026, and it’s already expected to become one of the busiest family attractions in Walt Disney World.
And yes… the Virtual Queue system is returning.
Here’s everything visitors need to know before visiting.
🌍 What is Bluey’s Wild World?
Bluey’s Wild World is a new themed experience taking over Conservation Station inside Rafiki’s Planet Watch at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
The attraction is designed as an interactive family adventure inspired by the hugely popular children’s TV series Bluey.
Guests can expect:
- Interactive play areas
- Character encounters
- Educational animal experiences
- Bluey-themed activities for younger children
It will appeal to families with younger kids especially those looking for a calmer experience away from major thrill rides.
📱 Virtual Queue Confirmed
Disney has confirmed that guests will need to use the Virtual Queue system via the My Disney Experience app to access the attraction.
👉 This means:
- No standby queue at opening
- You must secure a boarding group in the app
➕ Discovery how to add your tickets to the Disney App
⏰ Virtual Queue Times
Disney has announced two daily release windows:
- 7am
- 10am
If demand is similar to recent Disney openings, boarding groups are expected to disappear extremely quickly.
👉 We recommend visitors prepare in advance.
📲 How the Virtual Queue Works
If you’ve never used Disney’s Virtual Queue system before, here’s the basic process:
- Open the My Disney Experience app
- Join the Virtual Queue at the release time
- Receive a boarding group
- Return later when called
👉 You do not need to physically be inside the park for the 7am queue release, but you usually do for later drops.
🐾 Why is Disney using a Virtual Queue?
Disney is likely expecting huge demand.
Bluey has become one of the most popular children’s franchises in the world especially with families travelling from the UK, Australia and the US.
Using a Virtual Queue helps Disney:
- Reduce physical crowding
- Prevent huge standby lines
- Manage guest flow inside Animal Kingdom
🇬🇧 Why this matters for UK visitors
If you’re travelling from the UK with younger children, this could easily become one of the most important attractions in your holiday plans.
👉 Especially if:
- Your children love Bluey
- You’re visiting during school holidays
- You have younger kids not interested in thrill rides
Because of this, expect:
- High demand throughout 2026
- Busy mornings at Animal Kingdom
- Limited Virtual Queue availability
🎯 Top Tips for Getting a Boarding Group
📶 1. Use Strong Wi-Fi or Mobile Data
Poor connection can ruin your chances.
⏰ 2. Be Ready Before 7am
Don’t open the app at 7am exactly.
👉 Be logged in and prepared several minutes earlier.
👨👩👧 3. Link Your Entire Group
Make sure everyone is connected inside My Disney Experience before queue times open.
☀️ 4. Arrive Early at Animal Kingdom
Even with a Virtual Queue, Animal Kingdom is expected to be especially busy in the mornings.
🐶 What Can You Expect Inside?
Disney hasn’t revealed every detail yet, but based on early information and concept art, guests may see:
- Bluey and Bingo appearances
- Nature-themed interactive games
- Animal conservation activities
- Indoor and outdoor play spaces
👉 It sounds closer to an immersive play experience than a traditional ride.

👍 Yes especially for families with younger children
This looks set to become:
- One of the best preschool-friendly attractions in Disney World
