Disney’s Tinker Bell & the Pirate Fairy Competition
|
|
From the world of “Peter Pan” comes “The Pirate Fairy,” a swashbuckling new adventure about Zarina (voice of Christina Hendricks), a smart and ambitious dust-keeper fairy who’s captivated by Blue Pixie Dust and its endless possibilities. When Zarina’s wild ideas get her into trouble, she flees Pixie Hollow and joins forces with the scheming pirates of Skull Rock, who make her captain of their ship. Tinker Bell (voice of Mae Whitman) and her friends must embark on an epic adventure to find Zarina, and together they go sword-to-sword with the band of pirates led by a cabin boy named James (voice of Tom Hiddleston), who’ll soon be known as Captain Hook himself. With laughter, heart, magic and thrills, “The Pirate Fairy” sets sail these winter holidays.
To celebrate the release of this Disney movie, in cinemas these winter holidays, we have 25 family passes (family pass admits four - 2 adults and 2 children) to give away. To enter, email us at marketing@BIG4.com.au with a photo taken of the fun you have had on holiday at a BIG4 Holiday Park. Please include your full name, postal address and mobile phone number in the email and the name of the BIG4 Holiday Park the image was taken at.
