MUMBAI: Fun Cinemas has kicked off a special treat for kids with its annual Fun Summer Kids Film Festival, in cities across India from 27 April to 3 May. Running in eight cities and 10 locations, the festival will showcase one film every day for children ranging from 6-15 years of age. The festival also promises to entertain, educate and inspire children with workshops and other activities at the venue.

The line up of films include Shrek-2, Madagascar, Iqbal, Hanuman, Finding Nemo, Krishna, Chicken Run, Scooby Doo 2 and more, which begins at 11am every morning with fun events planned during the interval and after each film.

Fun Cinemas senior vice president marketing Shirish Handa said "This festival is aimed at providing kids across the country with an avenue that will not only entertain them with some of the best films, but also at providing an interactive atmosphere for learning. In an effort to help children embrace the magical and creative world of cinema, this festival will differentiate itself from those in the past with the various initiatives we have planned."

These supplementary events are also tailored so as to benefit the participating kids as much as possible. There will be art and craft workshops and competitions as well as talks on oral-care during the interval of each film which will be organized and conducted by Fevicol and Colgate-Palmolive.

This association reiterates how brands are recognizing this event as a platform for direct interaction with their key stakeholders. Each day during the interval, gift hampers will be given to children as part of the activities conducted during the workshop. In addition, there will be one Lucky Seat Winner every day for each show that will also get a gift hamper.

In addition to the daily passes, a heavily discounted seven-day season pass is also available at each location. Each Season pass holder is entitled to two McDonalds Happy Meals which can be redeemed at McDonald's outlets. Each ticket also comes with a free Pepsi.
