Winter Glow at Adventure Park
Rug up Melbourne because the Winter Glow is coming! Discover a glowing winter wonderland of snow, lights, fire and ice these Winter school holidays at Adventure Park!

Winter Glow, Adventure Park Geelong
The Winter Glow is back at Adventure Park, is set to bring another mind-blowing and immersive family festival to Geelong these July school holidays.
This spectacular annual Winter event transforms the park into a glowing winter wonderland with snow, light displays, rides, food, fire pits and lots of fun for kids of all ages.
There is a fantastic mix of snow play, rides, lights and cosy winter activities. There are also lots of undercover areas, which makes it a good option even when the weather is a little unpredictable.
For 2026, there are also two brand new rides to try, making this year’s Winter Glow even bigger than before.
New for 2026 at Winter Glow

There are two big new additions at Winter Glow this year.
The new Ice Toboggan is a 45 metre long slide where kids and adults can ride down on tubes. This was a huge hit with our kids and they wanted to go again and again.
There is also the new Drop Zone tower ride, a 20 metre high drop tower for those who love a bit of a thrill.

Snow Play Zone
One of the biggest highlights for families is the huge indoor Snow Play Zone.
Kids can play in the snow, make snow angels, build snowmen and enjoy the snow without needing to drive all the way to the mountains.
Our kids had so much fun in the snow zone and even made a massive snowman that was taller than me! The staff were fantastic too and really helped make it fun for the kids.


Lights, Princess Castle & Winter Magic
Once the sun goes down, the park really comes to life with glowing lights and installations throughout the grounds.
There are lights everywhere, making it feel really magical as you walk through the park. Kids will love spotting all the different displays, and it is a great place to take photos as a family.
There is also a beautiful lit-up princess castle where kids can meet the princesses, which is a lovely extra for little ones who love a bit of winter magic.

A selection of Adventure Park’s rides operate during Winter Glow, so there is plenty to keep kids busy.
Rides include:
- Ice Toboggan
- Drop Zone

The mix of rides, snow play and lights makes it suitable for a wide range of ages, from younger kids through to older children who want a little more action.
