We're back in the Ruhr for year three of the Children's Choice Awards! Look out for the cars on the autobahn, as we'll be ALLLL over the region the next 7 weeks chauffeuring the VIP's around.
For our first jury visit of 2014, we headed to Duisburg for the frietagsküche's "Doing Kitchen," a performance/meal where artists, performers and kids get to hang out and eat together ahead of the festival's official start. With a full meal included, we were feeling pretty optimistic that this performance would go over well from the start.
Here are 2 VIP's from Essen, posing with their VIP wheels to get the show started!
gold VIP badges (well, not for Jana :( )
Jury 1, with boys and girls from Essen, Osterfeld and Herten, met for the first time at the Landschaftspark in Duisburg. Ta daaaaa !
