Join us for VIFF Kids Club — our monthly family matinee series with film-inspired crafts and special concession snacks before the show! Doors open at 11:00 am for activities, with the film screening at 12:00 pm.

This Month’s Film
Kermit and friends reunite to save their old theater from greedy developers. A comedy with Oscar award-winning music and a lot of heart, this joyful family film celebrates friendship, laughter, and working together. Full of nostalgia for the first Muppet movie from 1979, this 2011 film reminds audiences of all ages of the enduring magic of the Muppets!

This Month’s Activities
Before the film gets started, kids will have the opportunity to create puppet-themed crafts, inspired by the film. A special, themed snack pack including candy, small popcorn and small drink, will be available to purchase.

Please note: VIFF Kids Club is designed for families to attend together. Adults can only attend if they’re bringing a child, and children can only attend if accompanied by an adult
