Know a Ken? Here’s why you should bring them to see Barbie

Get some free retail therapy

No Barbie is complete without their Ken. And like any fine accessory, you shouldn’t be seen without yours (sorry, Ken...) Here’s why you’ll want your favourite tag-along to join you at Vue. 

If you have a partner, family member, friend, colleague, or vague acquaintance who goes by ‘Ken’, you could nab yourself a free retail item just for bringing them along!

What kind of retail item? Well, how about our exclusive Barbie-pink Candy Floss Tango Ice Blast, slushed up just for you? Or, if you prefer, you could choose a regular popcorn to share with your Ken. You know, if you’re feeling generous. 

To claim your freebie, all you have to do is come and see Barbie at Vue on 21, 22 or 23 July (with your Ken!), and then show us your tickets at the desk. Your Ken will also need to bring a valid form of ID, so we can be certain they're not another doll in disguise. (See below for Terms & Conditions)

Oh yeah, and both of you must be over the age of 16. Like any well-packaged toy, we’re sure neither of you have aged a day in years, but you’re probably older than you look… 

And that’s it! With your sweet treats in hand, sit back, relax and watch a whole other bunch of Barbies and Kens (two of which look suspiciously like Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling) do their thing. We’ll see you in Barbie Land.
