Victoria’s largest Christmas Lights event, the Christmas Festival of Lights, is returning to Adventure Park on Saturday 27 November.
Adventure Park, in Wallington, said it promises more epic light installations, an extended walking trail, two new rides and more awesome Christmas activities for the kids this festive season.
Adventure Park’s Christmas celebration will run for 43 days, transforming the water theme park into a festive sparkling wonderland.
This year there will be an additional 700,000 lights over a 2km walking trail that will illuminate the night sky in a dazzling glowing wonderland for a third year in a row.
“We thought last year was big, but the 2021 event is even bigger with 2.7 million lights and some really jaw-dropping feature installations,” Adventure Park managing director Bree Salmon said.
“We have new light displays going all the way around the 16 acre lake and we’ve completely transformed our huge undercover pavilion with a lunar lanterns exhibit, filled with zodiac themed animal installations and lanterns, it’s so pretty. Plus there’s two new fun rides that kids will love, more food and drink options like the Schnapps Bar, more children’s activities and live entertainment.”
New light installations include a Lunar Lantern Exhibit complete with majestic 20m dragon, lanterns and animals from the zodiac; a Fantasyland with a 12m smoke breathing dragon, a 8m caterpillar and butterflies; a 25m Psychedelic Tunnel; Loch Ness Monster and enormous Angels from heaven plus so much more.
These add to an already spectacular lights display full of animals, giant toys, enchanted gardens, fairy-tale scenes, winter wonderlands and the popular shimmering sparkle archway, plus loads more jaw-dropping installations where you can snap a beautiful family photo.
New children’s activities include Christmas craft and face painting. Grown ups can have a cheeky Christmas cocktail and enjoy dinner or a snack from one of several food outlets and vans that will be serving up delicious fare all night.
Adventure Park recommends booking tickets early to avoid missing out.
