I was able to attend the launching of the Biggest Summer Cartoon Festival (and the only gathering of the 38 cartoon characters in 44 malls nationwide) in SM City Fairview Annex Atrium last April 12.
SM Supermalls, the country’s largest chain of malls launched the “SM Cartoonfest”, the summer- long festival will feature a never- before-seen number of activities and cartoon-related toys and interesting finds for the whole family and the cartoon- lover to enjoy.
The SM Cartoon Fest , hosted by DJ Show Suzuki and DJ Chloe, showcased meet-and-greets with our beloved cartoon characters such as Spongebob Square Pants and Patrick Star, Dora The Explorer and Boots, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Barbie Ballerina, Polly Pocket, Monster High, DC Comics Heroes, Bugs Bunny, Tom & Jerry, Angry Birds, Hello Kitty, Despicable Me Minions, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Bert & Ernie, Lorax, Hop, Garfield, Robby Rabbit and Iron Man.
Fun activities include face painting, coloring,exciting raffle prizes, scrapbook making, cartoon film showings, arts and crafts shows and one-of-a-kind play centers and game areas. Special discounts will be available for toys and other character items on sale.
SM’s Cartoonfest is supported by Bates/ Nickelodeon, Richprime, Pacific Licensing, Honeybarn, Solar Entertainment, FCI, Click Licensing and Astroplus/Magnavision, among others. With all the beloved cartoon characters in the malls this summer, SM can truly say, Everything’s Here.
It was fun to participate and be here in this event! I’m sure kids with their mommies and daddies would love to have the same fun filled experience I had here so join Cartoon Fest and don’t miss the chance to meet with your favorite cartoon characters.
