Sydney Showground is getting a frosty festive makeover when Christmas Wonderland sets up from December 15-24. The Christmas carnival will bring real falling snow, unlimited ice skating, winter tube slides and photos with the big red man himself.
In addition to the standard stomach-churning rides, there’ll be some sparkling Xmas-themed activities for kids. They can build ol’ Frosty the snowman inside Santa’s snow house, wander through a colourful Christmas village, the elves’ workshop, toy land, candy land, gingerbread land – basically all the lands. There’ll also be musical stage shows, festive colouring competitions and an alpine forest to explore, all under a canopy of twinkling fairy lights.
For the all-inclusive price of $40, all this cheesy Christmas magic can be yours for three hours. You have ten days to visit, and it’s open Monday to Friday, 10am-4.30pm and 10am-8pm on the weekends, but they’re wrapping up at 1pm on Christmas Eve.
