Tickets go on sale this week.

Kidtropolis director, Gemma Gallagher commented: “We are very excited about this announcement. The plan for Kidtropolis was always to host these great kid’s events in multiple cities and the announcement of the NEC edition has been one we have looked forward to because of our long standing relationship with the venue.
