From the Big Screen to Real Life: Papa Johns Launches ‘Papa Johns Pizza Planet’ Pop-Ups to Celebrate the Release of Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story 5 in Theaters

Four Papa Johns Pizza Planet experiences are described as part of a Toy Story 5-related program. The experiences are described as retro-inspired spaces that reflect the film’s universe.

These experiences are described as retro-inspired pizza arcades intended to evoke the Toy Story universe.

Limited-time Toy Story 5 pizzas, including Space Ranger Roni, Sheriff’s Roundup, and Reach for the Pie, will be offered along with exclusive packaging and merchandise.

From May 26 to July 19, a Toy Story 5 menu will be available in Papa Johns restaurants and via the app, with an in-app game, “Operation Pizza,” that unlocks rewards for Papa Rewards members and is initially available in the United States for a limited period.

Jenna Bromberg, Chief Marketing Officer at Papa Johns, said: “For so many, movie nights and pizza nights are one and the same and Toy Story has been a part of that experience for three decades — at the movie theater or around the table, sharing stories and slices. Bringing Papa Johns Pizza Planet to life lets us celebrate those moments, past and present, and recreate the feeling of coming together as a family over something familiar, comforting and fun.”

Chris Lyn‑Sue, SVP, General Manager of International at Papa Johns, added: “Toy Story is a franchise that has spanned generations, continuing to hold a special place in people’s hearts around the world — much like pizza does around the table. Papa Johns Pizza Planet is a place many fans will recognize and feel a connection. Bringing it to life today allows fans — old and new — to sit down, enjoy great pizza and make new memories together.”

“As excitement builds for the release of Toy Story 5, we’re thrilled to collaborate with Papa Johns on a campaign that brings this iconic experience off the big screen and into fans’ everyday lives,” said Lylle Breier, EVP, Partnerships & Events at The Walt Disney Studios. “Toy Story has always been about friendship, imagination, and the moments we share together, and Papa Johns Pizza Planet pop -ups give fans a chance to step inside that world and create new memories together.”
