Talking Dug Debuts for Pixar Fest 2024

Pixar Fest is almost here and we got a sneak peek at some of the offerings coming to the event! One we are super excited about is a talking Dug character! Dug is one of our favorite characters from Disney Pixar’s Up and guests can meet him during Pixar Fest.

Dug has been seen at Disney parks previously, but not like this! This time he can talk! He wears his special collar from the movie that allows him to speak to humans and he said some fun things to us when we met him. Dug told us to “stay!” and then said we were “good humans”.

Guests will find this special talking Dug during Pixar Fest at the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. His appearances and times will be listed on the Disneyland app. His interactions with guests will be more interactive, along the lines of other talking characters at Disney Parks.

First look at the new statues coming to Jumbeaux’s Sweets on the Disney Treasure

Disney Cruise Line continues to unveil exciting details about its newest ship, the Disney Treasure. One particularly sweet addition is Jumbeaux’s Sweets, a whimsical dessert destination inspired by the beloved film “Zootopia.” This announcement, first made during the Grand Reveal of the Disney Treasure last year, shines a light on the collaborative effort between Disney Imagineers and Walt Disney Animation Studios.

438741432_819554870201337_5362583910203361343_n

The journey from concept to reality is a meticulous one, and Jumbeaux’s Sweets exemplifies this dedication to detail. Imagineers have meticulously recreated the vibrant world of Zootopia within the confines of the dessert shop. Every element, from the precise shade of bubblegum pink-striped wallpaper to the vintage-style light fixtures, is carefully chosen to transport future Disney Cruise Line guests into Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde’s bustling mammal metropolis.

The centerpiece of Jumbeaux’s Sweets promises to be an eye-catching bronze statue featuring the film’s unlikely crime-solving duo. This creation is a testament to the collaborative spirit between Imagineers and the Walt Disney Animation team. The process began with sketched designs, followed by a close partnership to develop a one-of-a-kind digital model of the statue. Imagineers then used the precise measurements from this model to cast the piece in bronze. Finally, the statue journeyed to Florida for a meticulous painting process.

A recent image showcases Jay Abruzzese, a renowned Disney artist, adding the finishing touches to both Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. Soon, this stunning creation will be installed within Jumbeaux’s Sweets, ready to welcome guests and capture the essence of “Zootopia” on the high seas.

Jumbeaux’s Sweets promises to be more than just a dessert destination – it’s a testament to the imaginative power of Disney Imagineers and their ability to bring beloved Disney stories to life for guests of all ages. This exciting new addition to the Disney Treasure further fuels anticipation for the ship’s highly-anticipated debut later this year.
