If you have kids, it’s very likely you know what Bluey is.
Even if you don’t have little ones, the Emmy-winning Australian animated show’s reach is undeniable. The fun-loving kids’ classic is a global phenomenon. In 2025, the show was the number one most-streamed program in the U.S. for the second year in a row, with 45.2 billion minutes streamed according to a release by Disney+. Speaking of Disney+, the streaming platform is expanding its Bluey offerings with brand-new content launched March 16 into the summer.
Thus far, Bluey’s Big Play – The Stage Show, a special televised version of the popular touring theatrical production, was added to the platform for folks to stream in the comfort of their own home. No tickets needed. The special interpolates your favorite characters into a stage production that was produced by BBC Studios Kids and Family Productions in association with Ludo Studio, the animation company behind Bluey. Disney+ will also be adding “Bluey Minisodes,” which are Bluey content that is around one to three-minute minisodes that were previously only available for Australian viewers. These minisodes will be available for the first time on Disney+ beginning May 20.
To stream both the minisodes and the stage show, you’ll need a subscription to Disney+. A standard subscription with ads will run users $11.99 a month, while a premium subscription without ads costs $18.99 a month. Both subscriptions give users 4K UHD and HDR video quality, and the ability to stream on multiple devices at once, meaning you can watch Zootopia 2 at home on your TV or on a tablet while on the go. With your subscription, you’ll have access to a wide variety of titles via Disney+’s extensive library; that includes older episodes of “Bluey.”
All this streaming news follows the announcement of a Bluey movie set to hit theaters in 2027. While we’re a year out, there’s still plenty to be excited about, namely, the show’s music. The series has charted three No. 1s on Billboard‘s Kid Albums chart: Bluey: The Album (in 2021), Bluey: Dance Mode! (2023) and Bluey: Rug Island (2024). All three also reached Billboard’s Soundtracks chart. Collectively, the trio of Kid Albums chart-toppers has earned 764,000 equivalent album units in the United States through the week ending Aug. 28, according to Luminate. Joff Bush is the genius behind the show’s score that is both playful and often orchestral.
