Saturday Morning All You Can Eat Cereal Cartoon Party

Join us for the Annual Saturday Morning All You Can Eat Cereal Cartoon Party!

This 3-hour trip into the weird and wonderful world of animated antics will be accompanied by an all-you-can-eat buffet of cereal that is open throughout the show (and yes, there will be soy options too!). The cartoon lineup is a complete secret (even to the festival team), but you’ll see both favourites and obscurities spanning the 60s, 70s and 80s, all punctuated with vintage commercials and PSAs! So, get ready for a sugar rush and an explosion of nostalgia all wrapped up in one candy-coated package.
