THOMAS & FRIENDS™ EMBARK ON A JOURNEY ACROSS THIS BIG WORLD

Weekend is here, Mommy Jane brought me and my siblings to attend the launch of Thomas & Friends which was held at The Curve for 2 weeks. 

Thomas is inviting fans to discover the world with him at the Thomas & Friends: Big World! Big Adventures! event at the Curve. From 10AM to 10PM, between 14 and 26 August 2018, kids can meet life-sized replicas of Thomas and his friends, trek through an obstacle-filled maze in Nia’s Jungle Safari, visit Yong Bao’s Great Wall for puzzles and quizzes, and get comfy and enjoy never-before-seen videos of Thomas & Friends in a mini beanbag theatre.

Mattel is partnering with the Curve to bring this event to life, offering exclusive goodies and redemption offers at the Centre Court throughout the campaign. Every day, the first 1,000 kids to visit the event will be given a special Thomas & Friends Passport, which they can complete to win a special Thomas & Friends gift. In addition, shoppers who spend RM120 and above on Thomas & Friends merchandise will be able to redeem a limited edition 2-in-1 playmat carrier while shoppers who spend RM150 and above can redeem a 2-in-1 playmat carrier  and an exclusive Thomas Train Ride around the Centre Court. Redemptions are subject to terms and conditions, available only while stocks last.
