Boomerang and Premiere Star tour Germany with the Looney Tunes

Warner Bros. - May 2008

 
Successful kickoff of Looney Tunes Sportparty on Pentecost weekend in Kiel

Ready, steady, go! This weekend was the kickoff for the Looney Tunes Sportparty. About 60.000 children visited the opening event in Kiel. This summer the favourite cartoon heroes tour Germany with the Looney Tunes Sportparty!

In 10 cities and on 24 event days children and parents can expect a thrilling/exciting entertainment program loaded with numerous games and events on an activity area of approximately 1000 qm.

Different challenging stations, such as the Sylvester Catwalk, Tweety’s Bouncy Castle, the Roadrunner Obstacle Course, the Speedy Gonzales Driving School or the Basketball play in Daffy Duck’s Dunk, deal all with the theme world of the Looney Tunes. Everybody can take part and can challenge playfully its sense of balance, strength, speed, flexibility, endurance and team spirit.

Not only movement, but also laughing keeps healthy. Therefore Boomerang will look for the funniest Boomerang Move which will be taken throughout the tour in the scope of a photo promotion with trampolines and a lot of fun. The winners will be chosen on www.BoomerangTV.de. Premiere Star, which presents the cartoon channel Boomerang on its platform, accompanies the tour with various events. Among them, a Premiere Star marquee, where children and parents can take a break, a soccer shooting target and raffles on stage.

Sebastian König, well-known VJ of the music channel VIVA and one of the most famous moderators for children and teenagers, will present the tour.

The Looney Tunes Sportparty stands for healthy exercises and fun. Last year the warm-up already took place with the Looney Tunes for children and teachers in more than 500 elementary schools in Germany. The Looney Tunes Sportparty is an initiative of Warner Bros. Consumer Products, the German Dance Teachers Association (ADTV), the BARMER Health Insurance Fund, the State Institute for Early Childhood Education (IFP) and of the “Diet and Physical Activity” Platform (peb). With the help of the popular and famous Looney Tunes, the events are aiming to encourage the natural urge to move in children of the ages six to ten years, advancing health and physical development. Boomerang presents the tour as the exclusive TV partner.
