PAPA JOHNS TRANSFORMS SHOREDITCH INTO TOY STORY’S ICONIC PIZZA PLANET AHEAD OF TOY STORY 5!

Pizza lovers and Disney fans are being given the chance to step inside one of cinema’s most iconic fictional restaurants as Papa Johns launches Papa Johns Pizza Planet London, an immersive pop-up inspired by Disney and Pixar’s upcoming film Toy Story 5.

Opening for one weekend only on 13–14 June 2026 in Shoreditch, the free-to-attend experience will recreate the legendary Pizza Planet arcade first seen in the original Toy Story back in 1995, bringing a slice of Pixar nostalgia to London ahead of the film’s theatrical release on 19 June.

Step Into the World of Toy Story

Hosted at White Rabbit Studios in Shoreditch, Papa Johns Pizza Planet has been designed as a retro-inspired pizza arcade packed with references to the beloved animated franchise.

Visitors can expect interactive experiences, claw machines, nostalgic photo opportunities, giant screens, exclusive giveaways and limited-edition merchandise inspired by the upcoming film. The immersive venue aims to transport guests directly into the Toy Story universe while celebrating the shared joy of pizza and friendship.

The event forms part of a global collaboration between Papa Johns and Disney/Pixar, marking the first-ever pizza partnership tied to a Toy Story film release.

Exclusive Toy Story 5-Themed Pizzas

Fans attending the London pop-up will be among the first to try special limited-edition menu items inspired by Toy Story 5.

The featured pizzas include:

  • Sheriff’s Round Up – topped with BBQ sauce, mozzarella, grilled chicken and onions.
  • Reach for the Pie – featuring Italian sausage and banana peppers on Papa Johns’ signature pizza base.

Alongside the themed pizzas, guests can also discover exclusive collectibles, limited-edition packaging and merchandise created specifically for the collaboration.

Win Movie Tickets and a Year of Pizza

The experience promises plenty of surprises throughout the weekend, including competitions and giveaways featuring prizes from major brands such as Crocs.

Lucky visitors could walk away with Toy Story 5 cinema tickets, exclusive merchandise and even a year’s supply of Papa Johns pizza. The event is completely free to attend, although advance booking is required.

Papa Johns and Disney Celebrate a Shared Sense of Nostalgia

Chris Lyn-Sue, SVP and General Manager of International at Papa Johns, said the collaboration taps into the lasting appeal of both pizza and the Toy Story franchise.

He explained that generations of fans have grown up with Toy Story, making Pizza Planet a place that many people instantly recognise and feel connected to. By bringing it into the real world, Papa Johns hopes to create new memories for fans old and new.

Lylle Breier, EVP of Partnerships & Events at The Walt Disney Studios, added that the campaign celebrates the friendship, imagination and shared experiences that have always been central to the Toy Story films.
