Nick Jr. UK & Ireland Partners with Vue Entertainment to Bring 'PAW Patrol', 'Top Wing' and 'Shimmer and Shine' Content to the Big Screen this Summer

The partnership will kick off this July 7 and follows the success of last year’s PAW Patrol Mission PAW screenings and its successful Easter activity Nick Jr. Big Screen Heroes.

The partnership will kick off on Saturday 7th July 2018 and follows the success of last year’s PAW Patrol Mission PAW screenings and its successful Easter activity Nick Jr. Big Screen Heroes. This is the third time that Nick Jr. UK & Ireland and Vue Entertainment will screen exclusive preschool content in cinemas across the UK.

Marianne James, Vice President, Commercial Partnerships, Consumer Products and Experiences, UK and Ireland Nickelodeon UK, said: “We are very excited to be continuing our successful relationship with Vue.

“Our hit pre-school content is perfect for the big screen and the air adventure themed episodes will delight and entertain families during the holidays, as well as giving kids their first taste of the cinema experience.”

Johnny Carr, alternative content manager, Vue Entertainment UK and Ireland, added: “We are thrilled to be bringing more Nickelodeon content to the big screen. Our two previous releases were hugely successful and Air Adventures is the perfect addition to our summer programme – helping us to give our customers even more choice of what to see on the big screen than ever before.”

The episodes being screened are as follows:

- Paw Patrol: Sea Patrol: Pups Save a Shark
- Paw Patrol: Pups Save a Cloud Surfer
- Top Wing: Time to Earn Your Wings
- Top Wing: Rod’s Dream of Flying
- Top Wing: The Great Flash Wing Rescue
- Plus an exclusive Shimmer and Shine sneak peek

In addition to Nick Jr. Air Adventures at Vue cinemas, fans can also join and play with Nick Jr. favourites in the special Nick Jr. Adventure Centre as it visits select Asda, Tesco and Smyths stores across the UK this June and July. From a Nella the Princess Knight themed transformation game, PAW Patrol Chase race, Rusty Rivets lab and Shimmer and Shine wishing station – there’s something for everyone to enjoy at the Nick Jr. Adventure Centre this summer.

Nick Jr. UK & Ireland has also launched the "Make It and Bake It" initiative. This summer, parents and caregivers can keep the kids entertained by making and baking all their Nick Jr. friends from PAW Patrol, Nella the Princess Knight, Blaze and the Monster Machines, Becca's Bunch, Shimmer and Shine and Rusty Rivets! If you have a make or bake, Nick Jr. wants to see them. Just upload them to the official competition page on NickJr.co.uk, and your creation could appear on TV! Fans can also watch their favourite Nick Jr. shows every day from 7am!
