Walt Disney Pictures and Walden Media’s film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe hits select Taubman shopping malls across the country as a new interactive experience!
OPENING NOVEMBER 15!
A groundbreaking, multi-sensory experience based on the new Walt Disney Pictures/Walden Media upcoming film, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, brings Hollywood to the mall for the holidays this year.
Experience the Magic of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in the Snow Globes at 11 Taubman shopping centers nationwide opening Nov. 15. The new “snow globe” holiday decor lets visitors pass through the magic wardrobe and into the Land of Narnia —a 20-foot-diameter snow globe complete with falling snow (the same snow used in the movie!).
THROUGH THE WARDROBE:
En route to Narnia, you will encounter other giant snow globes, life-like figures and Narnia movie props and costumes directly from the film set. Cast members will welcome visitors via special greetings made exclusively for the experience, and director Andrew Adamson will take them on a video tour behind-the-scenes of the movie, which hits U.S. theaters Dec. 9.
Feel the same blast of cold that Lucy and Edmund felt when they stepped into Narnia, and experience the same theatrical snow in the magical Land of Narnia, where they’ll see a sneak peak of Narnia movie footage.
NEW HOLIDAY TRAVEL OPTION:
Overnight trips to Narnia — and back for shopping center snow globe explorers!
A new, one-night travel package designed for those who want to experience C.S. Lewis’ Narnia first hand at the mall and in their hotel rooms will be available Nov. 14, just in time for the Walt Disney Pictures/Walden Media upcoming film, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, which hits theaters Dec. 9.
The “Overnight Narnia Experience*,” created by eight Taubman shopping centers nationwide in partnership with neighboring hotels, gives guests the feel, sights, sounds – and even taste – of Narnia in a hotel-entertainment-shopping package including:
• A visit to “Experience the magic of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in the Snow Globes,” a groundbreaking display at the participating shopping center. The interactive experience, lets visitors experience the Land of Narnia depicted through giant snow globes, including a 20-foot, walk-through globe that actually puts visitors in the magical Land of Narnia — complete with a blast of cool air, falling snow and Narnia movie footage.
Visitors to the shopping center display will journey through the magic wardrobe to the Land of Narnia; view actual props and costumes used in the film; and see video insights from its director and video greetings from cast members, all made especially for the display.
• A free “green-screen” photo taken at the display that captures the experience forever by making those in the picture look like they’re standing in a wintry Narnia scene.
• Overnight hotel accommodations
• A copy of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe book, left on the hotel pillow to read in bed at night before the venture — and take home to read again and again
• Turkish Delight candy, which plays a key role in the movie and book, to set the mood
• A souvenir Snow Globe from Kodak that doubles as a picture holder
