Gear up for adventure and action this DSF as BEN 10 LIVE makes a comeback

Dubai The live action adventure cartoon show — Ben 10 Live is back this year, adding a punch to the 16th edition of Dubai Shopping Festival. This live action stage show — a huge hit with children as well as adults — is based on the exciting adventures of Ben 10 — the famous alien-morphing boy hero.

Shows will be held at Dubai Airport Expo on February 10, 11 and 12, with more than 30,000 people expected to attend. The super-sized show will be held at 3pm and 6pm on February 10, followed by 11am, 3pm and 6pm shows on February 11 and 12.

The show, an Australian stage production, is set to combine the best of Ben 10 and Ben 10 Alien Force in an 80-minute theatrical extravaganza. The thrilling performance will be filled with electrifying stunts, action flying sequences and cool BMX and skateboard tricks — all of this in an arena full of costumes brought to life against a huge digital backdrop, with jaw dropping effects and lighting.

Featuring a cast of 14 dynamic characters (live actors and costumed) including Ben and his cousin Gwen Tennyson, Kevin Levin and Grandpa Max, Ben 10 Live will see Rocks and Squidstrictor, brand-new alien superheroes from Ben 10 Alien Force joining popular superheroes Four Arms, Wildmutt and Heatblast, and menacing villains Vilgax and HighBreed Commander. Meanwhile, stunt performers from Latin America will entertain the audience with implausible stunts and slick moves.

Tickets are priced at Dh295, Dh225, Dh175 and Dh125 and can be purchased at Virgin Megastore, Hallmark, Spinneys and Toy Store outlets across the city as well as Burjuman.
