Fans of animated adventures are set for a summer treat as Fujifilm teams up with Illumination to launch a free immersive Minions & Monsters experience in the heart of London.
Running from 18 June to 12 July 2026, the interactive pop-up will transform the FUJIFILM House of Photography in Covent Garden into a colourful celebration of Illumination’s latest animated blockbuster, giving visitors the chance to step directly into the world of the film ahead of its cinema debut on 1 July 2026.
Step Into the World of Minions & Monsters
Hosted at the iconic House of Photography, the experience will take over the venue’s first floor with a series of themed photo opportunities inspired by the upcoming movie.
Visitors can explore interactive installations, pose alongside characters from the film, and even snap pictures with Irene, one of the breakout monster stars expected to capture audiences’ hearts when the movie arrives in cinemas.
The experience has been designed for families, film fans and photography enthusiasts alike, offering plenty of shareable moments throughout the attraction.

Friends and families can capture unique keepsakes completely free of charge, making it one of the most accessible family-friendly attractions in London this summer.
