Manchester Sea Life Center
teams up with Disney-Pixar
SEA Life Manchester has teamed up with
Disney-Pixar to enable its visitors this summer to share the excitement of
Finding Dory! A special Disney•Pixar Finding Dory event will be hosted
from Saturday, 16 July 2016, until Sunday, 11 September 2016, at the Manchester
based attraction, as well as 11 other Sea Life centres in the UK and Ireland.
Visitors will be led on an interactive trail by 1 of the new Disney-Pixar
movie's star sea creatures Hank (voice of Ed O'Neill), a cantankerous Octopus.
"Hank will appear in displays right through each centre, revealing amazing fishy
facts and providing collectible 'letters' which will need unscrambling at the
end of the journey to earn a reward. Like Finding Nemo before it, the new film
is likely to inspire an interest in marine life among millions of children,
which is why we're delighted to be associated with it." said event
organiser Jamie Turner.
Disney-Pixar's Finding Dory tells the story of Dory's quest to find her own
family, with the help of Nemo and Marlin and new characters like Hank that she
meets at a Californian marine rehabilitation centre and aquarium. "We have
many of the real sea creatures in our displays that the film's characters are
based on. With their help we think we can reinforce the messages which are at
the heart of the film, about the importance of looking after our seas and of
sharing experiences with family and friends." added Jamie.
Sea Life Manchester transports visitors to an amazing underwater world, where
they get to see incredible sea life from all over the planet. It is home to a
whole host of sea creatures including Ernie, the Giant Green Sea Turtle, who
neverfails to delight visitors, a shiver of different shark species, such as
Black Tip Reef Sharks and an incredible bay of rays, which is home to beautiful
Blue Spotted Stingrays. The Centres hosting the event are at London, Birmingham,
Blackpool, Brighton, Great Yarmouth, Hunstanton, Loch Lomond, Manchester,
Scarborough, Weymouth, Cornish Seal Sanctuary and Bray (Ireland). |
