“My whole family — grown-ups included — loves DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls. That’s incredibly rare and it’s why this is such a perfect collaboration for CAMP — we’re all about creating immersive experiences where grown-ups and kids can play together”, said Kirk Larsen, CAMP’s Chief Creative Officer. ” With Trolls x CAMP, we’re aiming for the sweet spot between going to your favorite boy band concert in middle school and taking your kids to a theme park. This is the perfect first show to launch our Universal partnership; can’t wait to show what’s next!”
“The Trolls films, with their zany yet empathic characters, glittery settings and infectious music, have added a vital dimension to the DreamWorks Animation catalogue, and Trolls Band Together will complete this trilogy with a story that will have you dancing while it tugs at your heartstrings,” said Michael Silver, President, Global Business Development, Universal Destinations & Experiences. “We are delighted that CAMP is enabling Trolls fans to enter the world of these tiny titans and experience their challenges and triumphs. We are thrilled that CAMP and NBCUniversal are partnering for the first time and look forward to CAMP bringing many of NBCUniversal’s other family-oriented properties to life at its locations throughout the country.”
“The true magic of the Trolls doesn’t stop at the screen or shelf– it continues as kids’ playout the happy world of the Trolls through their own imaginations,” says Rafael Macias, Executive Vice President and Global Commercial Officer, Consumer Products & Games, Universal Products & Experiences. “We’re committed to providing fans with dynamic opportunities to immerse themselves into the storytelling through innovative consumer products, video games and immersive retail experiences. Trolls is the first of a multi-IP collaboration with CAMP and is an exciting realization of our vision to bring-to-life-innovative shop and play retail experiences that ignite the imagination and build special memories for families.”

About DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls Band Together
This holiday season, get ready for an action-packed, all-star, rainbow-colored family reunion like no other as Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake return for the new chapter in DreamWorks Animation’s blockbuster musical franchise: Trolls Band Together.
After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting, Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake) are now officially, finally, a couple (#broppy)! As they grow closer, Poppy discovers that Branch has a secret past. He was once part of her favorite boyband phenomenon, BroZone, with his four brothers: Floyd (Golden Globe nominated electropop sensation Troye Sivan), John Dory (Eric André; Sing 2), Spruce (Grammy winner Daveed Diggs; Hamilton) and Clay (Grammy winner Kid Cudi; Don’t Look Up). BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn’t seen his brothers since.
But when Branch’s bro Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of nefarious pop-star villains—Velvet (Emmy winner Amy Schumer; Trainwreck) and Veneer (Grammy winner and Tony nominee Andrew Rannells; The Book of Mormon)—Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate even worse than pop-culture obscurity.
Featuring Trolls’ signature psychedelic joy-bomb of new and classic pop hits, Trolls Band Together stars a dazzling cast of musical superstars and comedic powerhouses as new franchise characters, including four-time Grammy nominee and Latin Grammy winner Camila Cabello (Cinderella) as Viva; Zosia Mamet (The Flight Attendant) as Crimp; and 12-time Emmy winning drag icon RuPaul Charles as Miss Maxine.
The returning cast includes Grammy, Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Zooey Deschanel as Bridget; Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Gristle, the Icona Pop duo Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt as Satin and Chenille, Grammy winner Anderson .Paak as Prince D, comedian Ron Funches as Cooper, SAG nominee Kunal Nayyar as Guy Diamond and Emmy winning Saturday Night Live legend Kenan Thompson as Tiny Diamond.
Trolls Band Together is steered by returning director Walt Dohrn and producer Gina Shay, and is co-directed by Tim Heitz (head of story, Trolls World Tour). DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls films—2016’s Trolls and 2020’s Trolls World Tour—have sung and danced their way to record-breaking success, earning an Oscar® nomination for Best Original Song and fueling one of the largest and most beloved entertainment brands in the world.
