Snow Slide to return just in time for school holidays

SNOW Slide will return to Perth in July to mark the winter school holidays.

The free City of Perth event is for kids aged 3-12 and will be held in Forrest Place.

Event tickets, which must be secured online in advance, will be released at 10am Monday June 27 for week one sessions (2-9 July) and 10am Monday July 4 for week two sessions (10-17 July).

With a 12m slide for kids over 110cm tall and a 4m slide for smaller kids, each of the twelve 25-minute sessions daily can accommodate 130 children, with a total of four able to ride the two-lane slides at any one time. This will allow almost 25,000 kids to get a ticket to slide.

Tickets for every session will be available to book on a ‘first in, first served’ basis from the moment they are released online.

To book tickets an email address and a free Oztix account will be required.

There will be free activities at the Perth Town Hall’s Wild Life Show, running from 28 June until 20 July.

The show will feature a live petting zoo, flora and fauna displays, kids’ workshops (bookings required), and a history exhibition on the Wild Life Shows of the 1950s and ‘60s.
