A new Bluey balloon wearing a Christmas crown will debut Thursday, Nov. 26 at the 100th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

The design comes from Christmas Swim, the episode in which Bluey, Bingo, Bandit and Chilli celebrate an Australian Christmas by the pool. Ludo Studio designed the balloon’s pose, and Macy’s Parade Studio built it at 47 feet long and 47.2 feet tall.

Watch Bluey’s complete balloon announcement on the official Bluey YouTube channel.

Melanie Zanetti and Dave McCormack, who voice Chilli and Bandit, will be in New York for the parade. Bluey first joined the lineup in 2022; the new crown design replaces the Keepy Uppy balloon seen from 2023 through 2025.

The parade begins at 8:30 a.m. in all U.S. time zones on NBC, Peacock and Telemundo, according to BBC Studios.
