To celebrate World Hearing Day, Peppa Pig Theme Park Florida and Dallas-Fort Worth are debuting a new look for the George meet and greet character to reflect a new storyline regarding his hearing loss.

There's been a couple of big changes for Peppa Pig and her family over the last year. Back in May, Peppa’s family welcomed a new addition with the birth of baby Evie Pig and the family moved into a bigger house, but that’s not all that’s new in Peppatown. In an upcoming episode of the beloved children’s show, titled "Hearing Test," the family learns that George Pig has moderate hearing loss in one ear. To help him experience sound in a new way, he is fitted with a hearing aid, which is now reflected in his theme park look. You can find out more about Georgie's hearing loss storyline here.

Inside of the Peppa Pig theme parks, guests can continue to meet George and play with him and his sister through interactive shows, he’ll just be sporting a slightly new look. George Pig wearing a hearing aid in-park will reflect his journey on-screen. This addition is in line with the park’s inclusive story telling and accessibility. Peppa Pig Theme Parks are also Certified Autism Centers.
When kids meet George in his new look, they’ll learn that not every child experiences the world in the same way, but that doesn’t make them any less special.

Park officials say the change reinforces inclusive storytelling and accessibility and builds on the park's IBCCES Certified Autism Center designation, with staff trained in sensory, environmental, and emotional awareness.
