Pool party – summer sports day

Grab your friends and whānau, and pack your togs, towel and sunscreen - we’ve saved the best ‘til last.

Get ready for a massive day of summer fun for the whole whānau. Sports fans and pool lovers alike can meet their favourite local sports players for photos and selfies – don’t miss it.

Dive into action on our lineup of giant inflatables: tackle the Gladiator, shoot hoops on mega basketball inflatables, and race through our obstacle courses and Bull Rush bouncy castles.

Need a break? Chill on a picnic blanket with a good read from the Christchurch City Libraries’ van, stocked with treasures to discover. Cool off with free ice cream from Streets (while it lasts), groove to the DJ’s beats, and enter the Manu Competition or scavenger hunt for exciting prizes.

Pack your togs, towel, and sunscreen – this is one event you won’t want to miss.
