Guests will immerse themselves in the world of DreamWorks Animation, interacting directly with their favorite characters. Interactive environments, featuring the latest digital technologies, will enable kids to engage in a wide range of thrilling activities, interacting with beloved characters from DreamWorks Animation’s franchises including Kung Fu Panda, Shrek, Madagascar, and How to Train Your Dragon.

“Melco Crown Philippines is delighted to be introducing DreamWorks to the Philippines as we continue our strategy of delivering innovative leisure and entertainment offerings that enhance the leisure destination appeal of Manila,” explained Clarence Chung, chairman and president, Melco Crown (Philippines) Resorts Corporation.
