SM Cinema treats furparents and furbabies to a movie date with Disney Pixar’s Hoppers

SM Cinema rolled out the turf for dogs and their owners once again, with Barkbuster Movies, a special pet‑friendly screening of Disney Pixar’s Hoppers at the Event Screen of SM Aura.

For many Filipinos, pets are family—and SM Supermalls embraces this reality. Barkbuster Movies reflects SM’s commitment to creating spaces that fit real lifestyles. Inside the cinema, dogs lounged beside their owners as families enjoyed the heartwarming adventure of Hoppers. One simple idea transformed a regular movie date into a shared bonding moment, reinforcing why SM remains the country’s most loved mall: it’s a place where every member of the family belongs. 

The event drew strong interest from the pet loving community, many of whom are active members of SM Super Pets Club. The screening gave furparents a rare opportunity to enjoy a film together with their pets in a safe and welcoming cinema environment.

Disney Pixar’s Hoppers added to the excitement with its story of animals navigating friendship, courage, and belonging. Its playful characters resonated with furparents, who often see their pets’ personalities reflected on screen.  

Beyond the screening, the event also brought the furparent community together through interactive pet friendly activities. Guests explored Paw Paint where pets created colorful paw print artwork, visited the Chew Toy Pit for playtime, shared heartfelt notes through Pop A Message for Your Pet, and captured photos at the themed Photo Wall.

Barkbuster Movies was held in partnership with SM Super Pets Club and Pet Express. The collaboration supports the growing community of pet lovers who see malls not only as shopping destinations but also as spaces where pets and their owners can bond.

Through initiatives like Barkbuster Movies, SM Cinema continues to evolve the moviegoing experience with entertainment that can’t be streamed. As the place Where Big Moments Live, SM Cinema delivers maxed out lifestyle moments you and your loved ones can enjoy.
