Rendering of the Papa Johns Pizza Planet in Los Angeles

Opening on select dates throughout June across major cities including London, Seoul, Madrid and Los Angeles, each Papa Johns Pizza Planet pop-up will fully transport fans into the Toy Story universe, featuring all the elements synonymous with the iconic movie series. Designed as retro‑inspired pizza arcades, the spaces invite fans to step into an immersive world shaped by playtime and imagination as they reconnect over pizza.

The experiences will feature limited‑time‑only Toy Story 5 pizzas - Space Ranger Roni, Sheriff's Roundup and Reach for the Pie - alongside exclusive packaging, collectibles, and merch created for pizza lovers and Toy Story fans alike. Guests can expect surprises around every corner, with gifting from adidas, Belkin and more up for grabs through giveaways.

For fans who can't make it to a Papa Johns Pizza Planet, the adventure continues in Papa Johns restaurants and on the app around the world. From May 26 to July 19, Papa Johns will offer this limited‑edition Toy Story 5 menu globally, giving fans everywhere the chance to relive the magic. Papa Johns is also launching the first ever in-app game, Operation Pizza, that unlocks Papa Rewards perks for Papa Rewards members. The game will be available only in the U.S. to Papa Rewards members for one month, starting June 1, 2026.

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."
