La Grande Journée des Enfants returns to participating Pathé cinemas on Sunday, November 22, 2026, including in Paris and the Île-de-France region. This new edition pairs two preview screenings, Asterix and the Kingdom of Nubia and The Cat in the Hat, with a screening of Kiki’s Delivery Service accompanied by an introduction to the film.
In Asterix and the Kingdom of Nubia, an elixir of youth accidentally poured into the magic potion turns the inhabitants of the Gaulish village into children. Asterix and Obelix must travel to the Kingdom of Nubia to find an antidote. You can find cinemas screening this preview on the Asterix and the Kingdom of Nubia showtimes page.
Another option for a family day out, The Cat in the Hat is being screened as an exclusive preview. The character must put a smile back on a brother and sister’s faces, or risk losing his magic hat if he fails. The The Cat in the Hat screening schedule lists the participating cinemas.
For a chance to see a film on the big screen again rather than catch a preview screening, the lineup also includes Kiki's Delivery Service. It follows a 13-year-old witch who sets off to train in an unfamiliar town, where a baker offers her a job making deliveries. The screening will be preceded by a recorded introduction by Philippe Rouyer, so there will be no in-person talk. The participating cinemas can be found on the Kiki's Delivery Service screening page. Pathé is also promising surprises for this edition; the event's official page brings together links to all three films.
