It’s the at-home Saturday Morning All-You-Can-Eat Cereal Cartoon Party!

It’s that special time when kids and kids-at-heart get to relive the exciting Saturday Morning ritual of non-stop retro cartoons, and binge on the multi-colored sugary cereals that used to be a part of every “balanced” breakfast! The cartoon lineup is always a mystery, but in this all-new program you’ll see both faves and obscurities spanning the '60s through the '80s, all punctuated with vintage commercials, PSAs and station IDs! So get ready for a sugar rush and an explosion of nostalgia all wrapped up in one candy-coated package.

Live Stream access for $10 per household. Curate your own cereal. Live Streaming Events are not be available on our on-demand plarform. Ticket holders will receive a link to the live streaming event. Please read our Online FAQ page for more details on how to access live streaming events.
