RAINBOW BLOG: AUGUST EVENTS!

This year marks the 25^th anniversary of SpongeBob SquarePants and last month he was seen celebrating in style at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. Visitors to the Fan Zone enjoyed a huge SpongeBob themed Paramount+ activation and had the chance to meet SpongeBob himself.

The Hundred Cricket tournament returned to our screens this July and so did their legendary sponsors.  This year Compare the Market’s Carl the Wombat has been joined by everyone’s favourite meerkats, Aleksandr and Sergei.

And with the Paris 2024 Olympics now well underway, Team GB’s Pride the Lion attended the opening of the Battersea Power Station Fan Zone last Friday, where he cut the ribbon alongside four-time British Olympic champion, Christine Ohuruogu MBE.

We have a bumper line-up this summer, so let’s take a look at the events that will keep your little one’s entertained during the holidays (*events can be subject to change)…
