Children’s Day 2025 will be truly unforgettable! MAKEMATION, the tech-themed family movie of the decade, is making it extra special. That’s right—children in Lagos, Nigeria, are being treated to an afternoon of fun and learning. This amazing event is brought to you by the producers of Africa’s first feature film on artificial intelligence!
Lagos’s favourite leisure spot, Ikeja City Mall, will host hundreds of excited children. These children will mingle with their beloved Nollywood Child Stars. They will also enjoy snacks, drinks, and celebrate their role as Nigeria’s future. Afterwards, they will head to Silverbird Cinemas in Ikeja City Mall where they will watch MAKEMATION.
Children’s Day with MAKEMATION—An Afternoon of Fun & Learning for Nigeria’s Future
Many prominent schools will be in attendance for this landmark event at Ikeja City Mall. Among them are Corona Secondary School, Oxbridge Tutorial College, Green Springs School, and Supreme Education Foundation School. Peaceville International Academy, Master’s Mark School, Peaceville Nursery and Primary School, Meadow Hall College, and Lagos Preparatory Secondary School will also be there.
Children’s Day is more than just a celebration; it is an opportunity. It is a time to recognise and honour the dreams, potential, and limitless imagination of young people. By celebrating this day each year, the world acknowledges their rights to life, education, fun, and imagination.
MAKEMATION is a film that champions the dreams and aspirations of young people. This tech-themed family drama is proud to celebrate Nigeria’s future. After the games and fun, the children will hear from their favourite Nollywood Child Stars. These spectacular young actors will share how they overcame their fears and their journeys to becoming big-screen stars with the children. They will also discuss technology and AI. There will also be interactive sessions to show children how to achieve their dreams using these tools.
The MAKEMATION Train Rolls On
The Children’s Day event is just one of the many stops of the MAKEMATION train!
That’s right—after its Nigerian box office success that saw it climb into the top 60 highest-grossing Nollywood films of all time, MAKEMATION is taking its message to the world.
It starts with the children on Children’s Day, and then it moves on to the youths who are ready to take over the future. From that stop, the train will roll on to the world stage. African storytelling will be reintroduced to the world, with a unique twist!
