Papa Johns to open Pizza Planet pop-ups in LA for ‘Toy Story 5’

Los Angeles pizza lovers and fans of Disney Pixar’s Toy Story franchise will be in for a tasty treat next month, timed to the release of the highly-anticipated “Toy Story 5.”

Papa Johns is teaming up with the upcoming sequel to launch a Papa Johns Pizza Planet pop-up in Los Angeles, according to a press release.

Fans will be transported back to the iconic Pizza Planet, featured in the original 1995 animated classic “Toy Story,” bringing the fictional animated pizza chain into the real world.

The pop-up — which will open along with others in London, Seoul and Madrid — will be designed as “retro-inspired pizza arcades” that aim to inspire fans to connect over the franchise and their love for pizza.

The shops will also feature three brand new pizzas inspired by the animated franchise — Space Ranger Roni, Sheriff’s Roundup and Reach for the Pie — along with exclusive packaging, collectibles, and merch.

There will also be surprise giveaways at these pop up shops with gifts from adidas, Belkin and more.

The Los Angeles shop (8180 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90046) will open for one day only on Friday, June 12, from 12 PM to 7 PM PT.

Fans can reserved their free time slots through Eventbrite, starting Friday, May 20 at 9 AM PT.

The London pop up (471-473 The Arches, Dereham Place, London EC2A 3HJ, England) will be open on June 12 and 13 from noon to 8 PM local time, and you can reserve tickets here.

The Seoul (72 Seongsu-ro, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea, June 12-14, 11 AM-7 PM local) and Madrid (203 Calle de Serrano, Madrid, Spain, June 16-21, 1 PM-midnight local) do not require reservations.

For those not in Los Angeles, London, Seoul and Madrid, Papa John’s will release these personal pizzas in stores nationwide, plus 42 international locations, from June 1 to July 19, priced at $6.99 apiece.

Both the Space Ranger Roni and Reach For the Pie will be made with, “Papa Johns signature pizza sauce, real cheese made from mozzarella.”
