Bluey & Bingo Are Taking Over Disney Cruise Line in 2026 — More Ships, More Sailings, More Wackadoo Fun!

Get ready for some seriously exciting family travel news! Disney has officially announced that Bluey and Bingo will be expanding to even more Disney Cruise Line ships in 2026, following their wildly popular debut aboard the Disney Wonder during the Australia and New Zealand cruise season. Families who have been dreaming of meeting their favorite Heeler pups — without needing passports or long-haul flights — are in for a huge treat. These beloved characters will now be featured on select domestic U.S. sailings, giving more guests the chance to laugh, dance, and play alongside the famous duo.

As a travel advisor who specializes in unforgettable family vacations, I’m thrilled about this update — Bluey is already a household name for parents of little ones, and bringing this magical world onboard more ships means even more opportunities for families to create memories that are both meaningful and downright silly… in the best way!

What Can Families Expect Onboard? So. Much. Fun.

These new onboard experiences are all about capturing the playful heart of the show. Families sailing on these select departures will see Bluey and Bingo popping up in multiple fun-filled moments throughout the trip. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s to come:

Morning Wake-Up Fun: “Wakey Wakey with Bluey & Bingo” is a high-energy way to start the day — full of dancing, games, laughter, music, and the kind of kid-approved chaos that makes vacations magical.

Nighttime Party Time: As evening settles in, families can dress in their coziest pajamas for the Pyjama Bash, where dancing, freeze games, silliness, and even a few heart-warming surprises await.

Meet-and-Greets: Guests will have multiple opportunities to say hello, snag a photo, and share a giggle with Bluey and Bingo themselves — a priceless moment, especially for preschoolers and young fans.

Crafts & Games: Expect interactive activities, surprises, scavenger hunts, themed crafts, and more adorable at-sea memories.

These additions are intentionally crafted to entertain younger children while encouraging parents and even grandparents to jump in and play too — just like the show teaches us to do.

More Ships + More Ports = More Families Add Bluey to Their Bucket List

Until now, only cruisers heading Down Under had access to Bluey experiences — but with this expansion into U.S.-based itineraries, Disney is making sure more families can join the fun. Whether you’re traveling with a toddler glued to their favorite episodes or simply enjoy the heart, humor, and imagination Bluey represents, this opens the door to planning the perfect family sailing — no long travel days required.

This shift also reflects Disney’s continued commitment to enhancing younger family experiences onboard — which, let’s be real, makes parents’ lives SO much easier. When the kids are having a blast, everyone gets to relax (preferably with an ocean view and a fruity drink in hand).

Why Bluey at Sea Is Such a Big Deal for Parents

Bluey is more than just a show — it’s a celebration of childhood, everyday play, and family connection. Each episode beautifully captures small moments that matter most: imagination, empathy, curiosity, humor, and togetherness. Seeing that come to life during a family vacation? That’s the magic people talk about long after the suitcases are unpacked.

These experiences aren’t about long lines or big thrill attractions — they’re about joy. They’re about the giggles during dance breaks, the pride in a little one’s first character hug, and the moments when parents get to play again, even for just a few days.

From my perspective as a travel professional — this is the exact kind of experience many young families are looking for:

✔ Easy

✔ Stress-Free

✔ Age-Inclusive

✔ Memory Making

More Bluey sailings means more families can enjoy that together.
