Bluey The Ride at Alton Towers Receives Entrance Sign and New Theming

Alton Towers
Sunday 8th March 2026

It’s our first look at Bluey the Ride: Here Come The Grannies! at Alton Towers in a few weeks, and since our last visit, a lot has changed!


The ride’s station has seen major progress, with themed vinyls now installed around the building. Inside, clouds have been painted across the ceiling, and string lights have been added to give the station a fun and playful atmosphere. The back wall of the station now features large artwork, which appears to include the Alton Towers towers alongside sandcastles.


Moving outside, a large tree theming element has been installed at the center of the ride, surrounding the coaster’s helix element and becoming a key visual feature. Fake grass and speakers have also been added around the area as the theming continues to come together.


Along the track, several playful details have appeared. Large barn doors have been installed at the start of the coaster, making it look like riders are exiting a house as the ride begins. There’s also a fake laundry washing line positioned above the track, creating a fun near-miss effect as the coaster passes underneath.


The main ride sign has now been installed, although at the moment it appears quite small and somewhat flat in design.


Work is also progressing on the queue line, which is now being put into place. It looks like it will include interactive elements for kids to play with while they wait, and shade has been installed over the queue leading into the station.


Overall, the ride area is starting to come together quickly, and it’s exciting to see more theming and details appearing across the attraction.
