Prepare to blast off with…
Hi-5 SPACE MAGIC!

HIGHLY ANTICIPATED AUSTRALIAN TOUR IS ANNOUNCED

“Kids from tiny tots to teens hero-worship talented young TV stars Hi-5” – Woman’s Day

Following five years of sell-out tours around the world, Hi-5 is very proud to announce the launch of Hi-5 Space Magic, the all new ‘get up and go’ show from our own record-breaking children’s television phenomenon!

Groovy kids across the country will love the chance to party with their Hi-5 heroes Kathleen, Nathan, Charli, Tim and Kellie in this brand new, high-energy event that will feature some of Hi-5’s most well-known songs and music from the top rating series on the Nine Network.

Nathan Foley from Hi-5 said, “It is so exciting to be touring our home country again at last. We have such fun with our Australian fans.”

The Hi-5 Space Magic tour kicks off at the Adelaide Entertainment centre on 13th November 2005 and will tour to Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Wollongong, Toowoomba, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Newcastle, Mandurah and Perth. Jam-packed full of fun and dancing, the all new Hi-5 Space Magic show promises over 75 minutes of infectious entertainment, definitely not couch potato viewing, this show is totally out of this world.

Hi-5 is a cutting-edge entertainment concept for today’s media-literate children aged between 2-8 years old. It’s a vibrant mix of stories, investigation, imagination and adventure, inviting children to actively share the excitement of exploring the world through movement, lots of catchy music and laughter. In the positive and friendly environment, learning is playful, fun and always inclusive. Hi-5 encourages children to develop their own potential and take a joyous and active part in life.

Household names and multi-award winners in their native Australia, Hi-5 is quickly becoming a global phenomenon. In August 2005 Hi-5 celebrated the 300th episode of their three-time Logie award-winning program. Hi-5 Series 8 is currently in production and will air on the Nine Network in 2006.

Says Mark Avery, CEO of ThemeSTAR Limited, “By the end of this 2005 tour, Hi-5 will have performed to an audience of over one and a half million people around the world. We are proud to be associated with Hi-5 internationally and look forward to bringing this fabulous family entertainment to the next million”.

Hi-5 Space Magic is a unique show from a unique brand and the hottest ticket in town!

Tickets on sale on September 5th.
