A Brand Theme Park for Children†

Kidzania's Unique Style of 'Edutainment'

Advertising Age, April 23, 2007 — Kidzania, a theme park offering intense brand engagement with young children, is a new twist on branded entertainment. It charges a $30 admission fee to allow children to "work" in one of 70 different kinds of jobs for a day. Young customers are outfitted in uniforms, hats or helmets as they take up their places in child-sized brand venues ranging from a Coca-Cola bottling plant and a Mo's Gourmet Hamburgers restaurant to a Johnson & Johnson hospital ward and a Mitsubishi auto world.
