Mumbai: Fans surrounded the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City for the world premiere event of Camp Rock.  The movie makes its television debut on 20 June. Stars of the movie and other notable guests walked the white carpet.

"New York really turned out to embrace us," said Joe Jonas. "I love the songs in this movie, and I can’t wait to share them with our fans."

Demi Lovato seconded the sentiment by adding, "Being here in New York for my first premiere event is beyond anything I ever expected I am looking forward to the world watching the movie and listening to the soundtrack. When I first heard the music to Camp Rock, I could not stop listening to it. And to sing with Joe Jonas was so exciting that when I listened to the playback for the first time, I cried."

Disney Channels president Rich Ross said, "We’re thrilled to give Camp Rock the premiere it deserved and to showcase the great talent of our cast and creative team. Millions of kids connect with our original movies every night, and Camp Rock is one that no doubt will follow in that tradition."
