Mexico City, Mexico — KidZania, the fastest growing kid’s hands-on entertainment brand, recognized globally for its unique blend of education and fun, expands its footprint to India with the opening of KidZania Mumbai. This represents the 14thinteractive kids’ city in 14 years, inviting more kids around the world to be inspired with fun and engaged learning through realistic role play. KidZania India joins a community that spans the globe with locations in Chile, Egypt, Indonesia, Japan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Portugal, South Korea, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates.

KidZania Mumbai is an indoor replica of a real-life city complete with paved roads and cars, city buildings, recognizable establishments and a functioning economy that has been right sized for kids.  Ideally suited for children ages 4 to 14, KidZania Mumbai features 60-plus real-world establishments (bank, university, fire house, radio station) and 80-plus career choices (pilot, surgeon, fashion designer) to help children develop real life skills.
