6/30/2023 0 Comments Santas magical kingdom addressWe (and many other families) had the foresight to take some goodies from home and thus avoided queueing and any extra expense.Įnclosed in two of the showground halls, this is an entertaining addition to the busy-ness and fun that is part of the holiday season. A ‘slushy’ stall, however, which includes a ‘souvenir’ drink container is a bit of a rip-off. There is one food outlet with the usual menu of take away foods, but it’s not particularly expensive. This was the highlight of the circus for our two boys, who had their toy motorbikes out at 6.30 this morning zooming around the living room, despite not getting to bed until after 10 the night before! Inside this first one, then two then three motorbikes are ridden in increasingly fast and more complicated routines, one of which includes a girl standing in the centre of the cage. This is followed by a juggler, a trapeze artist and a ‘clown’ who balances on an increasingly high ‘mountain’ of chairs.īut that’s not all! From backstage men drag and enormous domed ‘cage’ that is firmly fixed by secure ties to the four corners of the stage. Lithe and very flexible, she uses multiples of hula-hoops in an amazing and complicated routine. She is the first of the very clever and thrilling circus acts. Here, Santa appears with the Christmas fairy who uses her ‘magic’ to bring to life a ‘doll’ in a cellophane box. Hidden away behind a red velvet curtain is a ‘manufactured’ auditorium capable of seating hundreds around a very stable and secure stage. Add the constant (dare I say ‘blare’?) of Christmas music, the squeals emanating from the many rides and the buzz of families having fun, and you have the new addition to Sydney’s Christmas extravaganzas.Īnd it is an extravaganza! Along with the rides, a triple slide and an inflatable maze – all of which are included in the ticket price – there are photo booths and some things for sale, including a giant glow stick (which our 4 year old is convinced is a Star Wars force beam) which the kids love!īest of all (and also included in the ticket price), is the circus. The walk to and from the parking station to the Showground may seem a long way for little legs, but it’s quickly forgotten in the glitz and glitter of ‘snow’ falling in a short walkway of sparkling trees, white reindeer, polar bears and snow princesses.
