Cloudco Entertainment has collaborated with Harves to open the world’s first Care Bears-themed experience in Shanghai.

The project, Kalidico, offers a family entertainment experience based on the beloved Care Bears brand. Located on The Bund in Central Shanghai, Kalidico is designed to inspire creativity and imagination, offering interactive and content-driven play spaces, a dining experience that appeals to all ages and official Care Bears merchandise.

Simultaneous to the opening of Kalidico, Cloudco and Harves have made the entire animated series of 48×11-minute and 2×22-minute specials of Care Bears: Unlock the Magic available in Mandarin on the Chinese VOD platform Tencent.

Harves, the master licensee of Care Bears in China, created and developed Kalidico in collaboration with the architectural design firm X+Living and plans to open several more of the experiential destinations in China.

“We are thrilled to open the doors so families can enjoy this very special place,” said Harves Global Entertainment CEO Francis Person. “Our creative teams focused on interpreting the magic the Care Bears have offered to families for nearly 40 years. We wanted to create a completely new way to experience the brand. Kalidico fits into the Harves mission of bringing global experiences to the next generation in immersive and exciting ways designed to increase connection.”

“We’re excited to introduce this new Care Bears-themed experience to fans of all ages in Shanghai,” said Sean Gorman, president of Cloudco Entertainment. “The Care Bears represent values that are needed more than ever today. Kalidico brings these values to life and offers a beautifully designed experience where fans can enjoy meaningful time together and have fun.”
