It is initially slated to just be a pop-up attraction which remains up until Easter 2025, but depending on how popular it is a more permanent attraction may be built.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Bluey had smashed the TV ratings to become the top dog of Australian television.
The latest season of the beloved animated series about a charming family of Blue Heelers drew in a staggering 11 million viewers.
These figures combine the total audience who viewed the show across all platforms on the ABC and ABC iview since April.
The total audience figures comes from adding ratings from the five major capital cities, viewers in the regional centres, encore viewing and hours streamed on playback (VPM).
Bluey, arguably Australia’s most popular children’s TV show, follows the adventures of ‘a loveable, inexhaustible six-year-old Blue Heeler dog along with her family, which includes her mum, dad and younger sister, and her friends.
