Irn-bru Carnival

FUNFAIR CINEMA KIDS

SEC Centre, Glasgow, Thur, until Jan 13

Europe’s largest indoor funfair takes over the SEC for the festive season.

There are more than 60 rides and attractions, with new white-knuckle additions like Airmaxx 360 and Wild Mouse Rollercoaster. Family favourites include The Sticky Wall and Carousel, while there will also be 20 classic game stalls and activities such as basketball and an inflatable paradise for the little ones.

If you can stomach it after all the rides, there will also be a variety of food stalls.

Mary Poppins Returns

Released on Fri

More than 50 years after the original, the magical nanny is back, with Emily Blunt stepping into Julie Andrews’ shoes.

In Depression-era London, a now-adult Jane and Michael Banks, along with Michael’s three children, are visited by the enigmatic Mary Poppins following a personal loss.

Through her unique magical skills, and with the aid of her friend Jack, she helps them rediscover the joy and wonder missing in their lives. Dick Van Dyke is the only original cast member to return.

Remember December

Tron Theatre, Glasgow, until Dec 31

Ideal for little ones aged three to six-years-old who are maybe too young for panto, the Tron’s studio space is transformed into a cosy living room where forgetful Flora and her best pal in the world (her granny) are busy writing their letters to Santa one snowy December Eve.

But when Flora realises she has forgotten to post her letter, she wonders what will happen on December 25 if she doesn’t manage to put things right and make sure she and Granny are not missed off Santa’s list!
