These newly christened “CityDogs” are set to become the star transport link to the eagerly awaited Bluey’s World Brisbane at the riverside location.
The precinct’s ferry terminal has become the gateway to what promises to be Queensland’s most talked-about family attraction. Visitors arriving via the whimsically transformed vessels will find themselves immersed in the Bluey experience before they even reach their destination.
The collaborative effort between Ludo Studios, BBC Studios, and Brisbane’s CityCat team has turned everyday commuter craft into floating tributes to the globally successful children’s series.
The precinct’s transformation aligns with its growing reputation as a cultural and entertainment hub. The CityDogs will serve as more than just transport – they’re floating ambassadors for Brisbane’s identity as Bluey’s hometown.
BBC Studios ANZ Brands and Licensing Director Kate O’Connor emphasises this connection: “Reimagining two of Brisbane’s CityCats as CityDogs is a fun and fitting tribute to the show that has become a global phenomenon while still proudly calling Brisbane home.”
Bluey’s World Brisbane, launched on 7 November, promises multiple interactive rooms and games that reference the show’s most memorable moments. The Northshore Hamilton location has been carefully chosen to create an immersive experience that captures the essence of the series’ Brisbane setting, with the river journey aboard the CityDogs adding an extra layer of authenticity to the adventure.
For visitors making their way to Northshore Hamilton, the journey has become part of the destination. Whether they’re local families, interstate tourists, or international Bluey enthusiasts, the precinct is set to become a must-visit destination that showcases Brisbane’s unique blend of family entertainment, cultural significance, and riverside charm.
