Fans of Gabby and her Gabby Cats have something to look forward to this autumn, as Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie arrives in UK cinemas on 16 October 2025.
When Gabby’s dollhouse, her most prized possession, ends up in the hands of an eccentric cat lady named Vera, she is forced to step into the real world on a big adventure. Her mission? To reunite the Gabby Cats before it’s too late.
This new animated feature runs for 98 minutes and has been given a U rating by the BBFC, with only “very mild violence, threat, rude humour and innuendo.” In other words, it’s a safe and fun choice for families with children of all ages.
What makes this movie stand out is that it’s interactive—expect the kids to be singing along and reacting throughout. With plenty of cheesy songs, vibrant colours, and funny moments, it’s a film that keeps little ones engaged from start to finish.
But what really makes Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie memorable is the message at its heart: growing up doesn’t mean you have to stop playing. It’s a reminder for children—and adults—that making time for fun is important, no matter your age.
For parents, it may even bring back a touch of nostalgia. At times, the film gives off the same emotional pull as Toy Story 3, especially when it explores themes of growing up, change, and holding onto what makes childhood special.
And here’s a little bonus—without spoiling the ending, it definitely leaves the door open for a potential spinoff in the future. If you’re looking for a family-friendly outing this October, Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie is one to add to your list. Funny, interactive, and filled with positive messages, it’s the perfect cinema trip for kids and parents alike.
And remember, cinema doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. You can literally get tickets for as little as £3 if you know where to look. Check out my cinema money-saving tips here.
