‘CoComelon’ Is Coming to Punta Cana
- Disney alums sign park deal after $3 billion Moonbug buy
- Caribbean resort will also feature PBS Kids characters
“CoComelon” began as a hit animated children’s program on YouTube. Then, the musical sensation became one of Netflix Inc.’s most popular kid’s series. Now, it’s the inspiration for a football-field-size playground set to open in the Caribbean.
Moonbug Entertainment Ltd., which owns “CoComelon” and “Blippi,” another hit with the preschool crowd, is lending characters from both shows to a new entertainment destination opening next year in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Moonbug partnered with Falcon’s Beyond Global LLC, which develops entertainment properties, for its characters be part of an attraction called Curiosity Playground.
