A brand-new musical outing starring everyone’s favourite CBeebies characters is arriving at cinemas this summer.

Featuring a star-studded cast - including Justin Fletcher, Maddie Moate, and Andy Day - CBeebies Musical: The Great Ice Cream Hunt promises to add a sprinkling of joy to the holidays.

During their adventure, the pair befriend Storyland Rangers at Coconut Cove, learn magical moves at Mermaid Falls and help a stressed-out caterpillar find his voice at the Summer Fruits Festival. But when they finally catch up with their prime suspect - the rain-loving Professor Raindrop - things aren’t quite what they seem…
