Character Appearance Changes to Full Kids Fun Day at West Acres

West Acres Centre has adjusted its upcoming schedule for the weekend. While plans originally featured a specific character appearance, the shopping centre has adapted the programme into a broader Kids Fun Day.

The changes will not stop the activities from going ahead. Instead, the focus has shifted to a wider variety of family-oriented entertainment.

What to Expect on the Day

The event features several activities designed for children and families. The lineup includes:

• Games and Face Painting: Activities tailored for both young and older children.

• Parent & Kid Dress-Up Competition: A themed competition open to participating families.

• Live Entertainment: Performance and entertainment provided by Johnny Snowball.

• Mascot Appearances: Friendly mascot characters will be walking around the venue.

• Free Kodak Photos: Attendees can have their photos taken and collect a complimentary printed copy directly from Kodak.

Prizes will also be handed out during the various games throughout the afternoon.
