Bluey to get its first global premiere with new specials

Disney Branded Television, BBC Studios Kids & Family and Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) have revealed that the next instalments of Bluey – including an extended length special – will premiere this April, marking the series’ first global rollout.

The first new episode, Ghostbasket, will premiere on Sunday 7 April, teeing up the debut of the 28-minute special, The Sign, premiering a week later on Sunday 14 April.

Both episodes will air first via ABC Kids in Australia and then roll out globally the same day across Disney+, Disney Junior and Disney Channel in all other available regions (with the exception of China and New Zealand).

The Sign will mark Bluey’s longest ever episode.

Bluey closed out 2023 as the number one series for preschoolers and kids and was the number two most-streamed series across all audiences, according to Nielsen. Ten new episodes of the series premiered on Disney+ in January and will begin rolling out on Disney Channel and Disney Junior beginning 25 March to 5 April.
