BBC Studios<\/strong> is delighted to announce that <\/span>\u201cBluey at the Cinema: Let\u2019s Play\u00a0 Chef Collection<\/strong>\u201d, <\/span><\/i>a special compilation of episodes from the beloved animated series <\/span>Bluey<\/span><\/i>, will make its big\u00a0 screen Italian debut on 18<\/span>th <\/span>October at Alice nella Citt\u00e0, the independent and parallel section of the Rome\u00a0 Film Festival<\/strong> dedicated to younger audiences.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the premiere, the collection will rollout nationally on the big screen for the first time, allowing even\u00a0 more fans to enjoy the fun of <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>in cinemas, and offering a new way to experience the episodes featuring Bluey and her family.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Created by Joe Brumm, <\/span>Bluey<\/strong> <\/span><\/i>is produced by Ludo Studio for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and\u00a0 co-commissioned by ABC Children\u2019s and BBC Studios Kids & Family. The hit TV series is distributed\u00a0<\/span>internationally by BBC Studios Kids & Family. Since its launch, <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>has become a global phenomenon,\u00a0 adored by families and fans alike. The premiere screening at Rome\u2019s Alice nella Citt\u00e0 festival marks the latest\u00a0 chapter in <\/span>Bluey\u2019<\/span><\/i>s growing popularity in Italy, where the Emmy\u00ae Award-winning series about a lovable, inexhaustible Blue Heeler dog who turns everyday family life into her world of fun has become a firm family\u00a0 favourite.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With <\/span>Bluey at the Cinema: Let’s Play Chef Collection<\/strong>, <\/span><\/i>Vue Lumi\u00e8re, in partnership with Piece of Magic\u00a0 Entertainment, will bring an exclusive one-hour compilation of eight particularly popular episodes that\u00a0 revolve around the fun of food to cinemas nationwide from 30<\/span>th <\/span>October.

The compilation of episodes brings families\u2019 favourite small screen characters to the big screen. These will be\u00a0 available at The Space Cinema and other cinema chains across Italy.

The cinema event, which has already been successfully launched in the United Kingdom & Ireland, Spain,\u00a0 Poland, and is soon to come to Germany, France and Benelux, celebrates BBC Studios’ 2025 global brand\u00a0 theme<\/span>, “Let’s Play Chef<\/strong>“<\/span><\/i>, and brings the thematically appropriate episodes to the big screen for the first time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cecilia Persson, Managing Director of BBC Studios Kids & Family, said<\/b>, \u201cFamilies across Italy will soon enjoy\u00a0 the special compilation on the big screen, starting with an exciting premiere at Rome\u2019s Alice nella citt\u00e0\u00a0 festival. We\u2019re thrilled to invite audiences to experience <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>on the big screen, celebrating the joy, laughter,\u00a0 and love that the series brings to children and parents alike. <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>fans are at the heart of everything we do,\u00a0 and as the series continues to grow in popularity around the world, bringing <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>into Italian cinemas is a\u00a0 particularly exciting milestone as we look for new, fun ways to share the fun of Bluey and her family with\u00a0 even more families.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The “Let’s Play Chef<\/strong>” theme also inspires new product lines from Master Toy Partner Moose Toys, distributed\u00a0 by Rocco Giocattoli. A new range of toys has been released in August, including a <\/span>Bluey\u2019s Supermarket Playset<\/strong>,\u00a0 a 2-in-1 Food Truck <\/span><\/i>and a <\/span>Juice Bar. <\/span><\/i>In parallel, the long-awaited LEGO\u00ae <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>sets were released worldwide\u00a0 this summer, both in the LEGO\u00ae 4+ and LEGO\u00ae DUPLO\u00ae lines.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the TV sector, <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>ranks as the #2 preschool show for individuals aged 4+ on Rai Yoyo in Italy (Q2 2025)<\/span>1<\/span> and is also airing on DeA Junior and Disney+. The brand’s digital presence is also growing with the local\u00a0 YouTube channel <\/span>Bluey \u2013 Italiano Canale Ufficiale<\/a><\/span>, which has received over 289 million views and 421k\u00a0 subscribers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking to the future, anticipation is growing for <\/span>Bluey’s <\/span><\/i>first feature film. Earlier this month, BBC Studios\u00a0 and Walt Disney Studios, in partnership with Ludo Studio, announced that the feature-length <\/span>Bluey <\/span><\/i>movie\u00a0 will be released in cinemas on August 6<\/span>th <\/span>2027.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
