High St treasure hunt fun this Saturday!
Published Thursday 21st April 11 in Council - news and information releases news
Come on kids! Hurry down to Southend High Street on Saturday for a terrific treasure hunt with a difference!
From 11am, keep your eyes peeled for ten favourite cartoon characters popping up in key locations in Central Southend . Collect stickers from each of their friendly helpers.
The helpers will also give you a copy of Southend Film Festival programme, which contains a special page for the stickers to go on.
Take your ten stickers in your Southend Film Festival Programme, to Southend Visitor Information Centre at the Pier on Southend seafront (where one of the characters can be found!) and you could win FREE tickets to see Toy Story 3 at 11am on Saturday 30th April at the Palace Theatre, Westcliff.
This Saturday's contest is due to finish at 3pm - or when all of the 100 pairs of tickets available have been won!
Children must be accompanied by an adult to see the film on Saturday 30th April, but the adults will not be charged.
This fun competition, devised in conjunction with Southend Town Centre Partnership, is part of Southend's fabulous Film Festival running from Thursday 28th April to Monday 2nd May.
