Victoria Quay Christmas Carnival

Get into the Christmas spirit at Fremantle Ports’ premier dockside location, Victoria Quay this Saturday at the Victoria Quay Christmas Carnival from 3-9pm. There will be free rides, free fairy-floss and popcorn for the kids and free parking at Victoria Quay.

Kids will enjoy an Elf Show, skate workshops, face painting, giant bubbles and of course, a visit from Santa himself. Big kids can grab a bite to eat from a selection of food trucks, browse pop-up shops, groove along to the sounds of WA Samba and take in great roving performances. The E Shed Markets will be open for all your Christmas shopping needs and a licenced bar to kick back and relax.

Everyone can enjoy one of Perth’s newest rides, The Dream Swinger. With 360-degree views, you will reach for the stars, soaring 12 metres into the air and it lights up at night! There’s also the Cup & Saucer, Runaway Train and The Storm; a fast-spinning G force experience for the more adventurous. Little ones can have their own kind of fun in the big bouncy castle.

You can also take a peek at Container – the box that changed the world, an interactive, solar-powered exhibition displayed in six colourful, modified sea containers, spread across the western end of Victoria Quay.

Two lucky families will win a free trip to Rottnest, so be sure to drop your entry into the barrel on the day.
