GKIDS and Fathom Events continue their collaboration to bring exciting all new animated features to U.S. cinemas with the PROMARE (????, Puromea, 2019) special premiere events in September.

PROMARE will be shown in its original Japanese language as well as an all-new English language version. Additionally, event attendees will view exclusive footage with the Studio TRIGGER creative team. Tickets for PROMARE can be purchased online by visiting fathomevents.com, PromareMovie.com, or at participating theater box offices.
