Created by a Belgian cartoonist called Peyo, the Smurfs who started as series of cartoon strips that first featured in 1958 in a Belgian Magazine and tells the story a fictional group of small sky blue creatures who live “somewhere”
“The success of the Blue Gnome has taken us a little by surprise especially when we started getting people sending us pictures of themselves wearing the costume from all over the globe, it was then that we decided to create the Smurf Holiday Map” says Butler. The Smurf Holiday Map allows people who have dressed up in a Smurf costume to send in the photo of themselves wearing the costume, to be placed on the map with the idea of seeing all the interesting places that the Smurf's have gone on “holiday”
So far there are photos of the Smurfs holidaying in destinations as exotic as Las Vegas in America, the Gambia in West Africa, Dublin in Ireland, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Copenhagen in Denmark and skiing in the French Alps!
People who send in their entries not only get the chance to be added to the map, but also have a chance of winning a voucher to buy more costumes!
