It was a dream come true for hundreds of children when they turned up with their parents at GO’s Valletta outlet to meet Barney – the one and only, most adorable dinosaur. Barney’s fans had the time of their lives as they played around, posed for photographs and joked with their purple dinosaur friend. What’s more, to their hearts’ delight, the children had their share of the Barney figolla and were given a GO giveaway each to take home as a keepsake of their incredible experience.

Commenting on Barney’s visit, Claire Galea, GO’s Marketing Communications manager said: “It was indeed our pleasure to give local children the great opportunity to meet this lovable six-foot-tall dinosaur in the flesh, as a very special Easter treat to them from GO.”

“To add to the excitement and fun, we prepared an extra large Barney figolla at the outlet and we also gave out colouring sheets of Barney for his young fans to take back home. And that’s not all! Those who came to GO’s Valletta outlet on 14 April to meet up with Barney actually had the chance to try their luck at winning tickets to the exceptional Barney, Let’s Go Tour showing at the City Theatre in Valletta.”

The lucky winner of the competition, Verginia Schembri from Valletta, won four tickets to the Barney show and lots of other Barney gifts including a soft toy, a choice of Barney collectibles, a Barney figolla, books and more. Ms Schembri participated in the competition – along with hundreds of other parents – after she filled in her information details during the Barney event at GO’s retail outlet in Valletta. On the day, new customers who subscribed to one of the GO Plus TV packages Silver+ and Gold+ also received a gift from the range of Barney collectibles.
