“Wrap up cosy and come down for a wintry blast at Snow in the Park,” says Henderson-Massey Local Board member Vanessa Neeson.

“There will be heaps of fun activities for children and their families – and it’s all free.”

As always, the four-lane tube run will be a highlight, with snow delivered by Snow Planet.

There will also be an under-six snowboarding area and a snow play area where children can make snowmen and snow castles.

Prizes, face-painting, bouncy castles, a climbing wall, huskies, bumper-ball soccer and more will keep everyone entertained. Elsa and Olaf will be there!

You’ll be able to warm up with food and coffee stalls too.

The event is smoke-free and zero waste, and is funded by Henderson-Massey Local Board.
