Come aboard and set sail with Peppa Pig in a new four-part open seas adventure from Hasbro’s Entertainment One (eOne). In addition to the combined 20-minute tale, premiering on Nick Jr. on June 5 at 7 p.m. EST/PST, Hasbro will be launching a brand-new Peppa’s Cruise Ship toy set at retailers on August 1.
The Peppa Pig Cruise Special sees Peppa, George, Granny Pig and Grandpa Pig set off on a solar-powered mega cruise ship where they explore themed cafes, shops, paddling pool, cinema and play areas. As the family travels to a tropical island for some fun in the sun and sand, they’ll bump into old and new friends on the ship including Mrs. Corgi, Mr. Stallion, Rohan Rhino, Daddy Rhino, Captain Otter, Pirate Pete, Mrs. Mermaid and more.
Complete with a whale sighting, pirate performance, treasure hunts and potato ride, this holiday cruise is full of imaginative, oink-tastic experiences for the whole family.
Each individual episode of the four-part special — “Cruise Ship Special,” “Holiday on the Sea,” “Tropical Day Trip” and “Sailing Home” — will be released in the U.S. on the Nickelodeon channel at 9:00 a.m. EST/PST beginning June 5 through June 8, with same-day airings on the Nick Jr. channel at 7:00 p.m. EST/PST. On Friday, June 9, the full 20-minute, combined special will air on Nick Jr.
The Peppa Pig Cruise Special is produced by BAFTA and Emmy Award-winning animation studio Karrot.
Kids and their parents will be able to jump into these adventures through a new entertainment-inspired toy set, bringing the cruise ship to life with an all-inclusive three-level boat experience. Whether manning the ship as the captain on the main deck, sliding into the ball pit, driving the dinghy boat out for a quick trip or eating in a jungle-themed dining room, this toy is sure to spark little piggies’ big imaginations.
Peppa’s Cruise Ship features 13 accessories and three character figures from entertainment, inspiring children’s storytelling experience of their favorite character’s day on a cruise. Peppa’s Cruise Ship will be available at major retailers beginning August 1.
