I Explored the World’s Largest Pixar Experience in the UK—It Felt Like I Was Inside Toy Story and Monsters Inc!

I HAD been shrunk down to the size of Woody, Jessie and Buzz in Andy’s room – suddenly I wasn’t visiting an experience, I was a part of it.

The new Mundo Pixar Experience – the biggest of it’s kind in the world – has landed in the UK for the very first time at Park in London, after success in Madrid, Barcelona and Brussels.

Spread across 14 rooms, visitors can step into their favourite stories and meet the characters of each film.

As a 25-year-old who still loves Pixar films, I felt like I could be a big kid again as I ventured into the Factory and met Sully and Mike before opening the door to glimpse into the bedrooms to see where the ‘scarers’ go to work.

The experience features all the movies you would expect including , Up, Cars and Inside Out.

However, there are still a few classics missing such as and Wall.E.

There are newer Pixar movies featured in the experience too, such as Luca and Elemental.

Before you enter each set, you are greeted by an information board telling you which film you are about to enter.

They also share interesting behind the scenes knowledge.

For example, did you know that the Pizza Planet Truck that Woody and Buzz travel in, in Toy Story, appears in nearly every Pixar film?

Once inside, the attention to detail in each room is impressive.

In Andy’s bedroom there were 3D-printed Green Army Men – though probably at least 100 times the size they normally are.

On the set of you can even hop on the Vespa.

You can even step inside the diver’s goggles in

My only disappointment was to see that Anger in was essentially a cardboard cutout and Bing Bong was nowhere to be seen.

All of the sets also have handy picture stickers on the floor too, to show you where the best photo moment is in the room.

And there is a crew member in each room to lend a hand in snapping the perfect shot.

A little bit of added fun for the kids and parents is to find Pixar’s iconic yellow and blue ball with a red star on it, in every room.

Trust me, it isn’t as easy as it seems…

The experience is open every day except Tuesday until June with sessions starting at 9am and 10am and running through until 7pm.

Each session approximately lasts 45 to 55 minutes, though if you can, I definitely would spend longer really exploring the sets.

And of course, taking lots of pictures and videos.

When you get to the end of the experience there is a large shop – which, be warned, you will want everything from.

Prices aren’t too bad either, with mugs costing £19.95 and t-shirts costing £29.95.

There are some really nice items as well such as the Adventure Book from Up and you can even own your own Pixar ball for £19.95.

Tickets are a little on the more expensive side considering the experience is mostly a picture and video opportunity, starting from around £20 per child and more for an adult.

Having said that though, it was heaps of fun and the more time you spend there, the more your imagination really immerses you in the sets.

Whilst obviously great for kids and families, as an adult I thoroughly enjoyed a walk down memory lane and allowing myself to be a child once again by running around Andy’s room and ‘swimming‘ with Nemo.

With half-term here and the rain not stopping, it is the perfect indoor escape to keep the kids (and big kids) entertained.

In other experience news, a brand … but you don’t actually go anywhere.

Plus, a huge will launch this summer – where you step into a real life western.
