FANS of Lightning McQueen and Buzz Lightyear will soon be able to get up close to the characters in real life thanks to a new immersive experience.
A Pixar Animation immersive experience will open in London in 2026.
Mundo Pixar Experience, which is the world’s largest celebration of Pixar Animation Studios, will open at Wembley Park on February 13, 2026.
Visitors will be able to step inside 14 of Pixar’s most famous worlds, such as Toy Story, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, Coco, Inside Out and Up.
In total, the experience will sprawl across 3,500sqm and it will feature more than 25 life-sized sculptures.
Sets from the movies will also be recreated, with soundscapes, lighting and even smells from the films.

Fans will be able to shrink down to the size of a toy in Andy’s Room, then explore the Scare Floor with Mike and Sully from Monsters Inc.
From Cars, there will be Flo’s Café where visitors can meet Lightning McQueen and you can then even head into the Headquarters of Riley’s emotions from Inside Out 2.
Visitors can even venture on a journey from Coco’s Land of the Living to the Land of the Dead.
And if it wasn’t enough to explore the sets and meet the characters, then there will also be a Pixar Ball Treasure Hunt, where visitors are challenged to spot the famous yellow star ball hidden throughout the experience.
The opening in London follows record-breaking runs of the experience in Brazil, Mexico, Belgium and Spain – where it attracted more than 3.2million visitors.
The experience will also be fully accessible for visitors with motor, hearing, visual and neurodivergent disabilities.
The experience lasts around 45 to 55 minutes, but if you want to spend longer exploring you can.
The venue will have a selection of exclusive merch available to buy too.
Tickets go on sale from November 21, 2025 and though prices haven’t been revealed yet, the experience cost from €14 (£12.33) when it was in Barcelona.
One person who visited the experience in Spain said: “Absolutely one to do at least once.
“There are so many super immersive rooms where you can get lost in details, take pictures with your favorite characters and become children again.
“I loved the rooms dedicated to Coco and Up.”
Another person, who visited the experience in Brussels said: “We had an amazing time visiting Mundo Pixar in Brussels – it truly felt like stepping into the heart of the Pixar universe!
“From the moment we entered, we were surrounded by vibrant, immersive sets that brought to life so many beloved characters and movie moments.
“The attention to detail was fantastic, with each room thoughtfully designed to reflect the magic of films like Toy Story, Up, Cars, Finding Nemo, and Coco.
“Our four-year-old was completely enchanted, and honestly, so were we – it felt like reliving our childhood.”
There are a number of other immersive experiences across London, including a new immersive Titanic attraction.
And ideal for little kids, there is a Paddington immersive experience with ‘train rides’ and street parties.
