Australia’s largest Wibit Sport Park to be installed at Darwin Waterfront

Australia’s largest Wibit Sport Park to be installed at Darwin Waterfront
June 10, 2022

Australia’s largest Wibit Sport Park is to be installed at Darwin Waterfront’s Recreation Lagoon on Saturday 25th June 2022 and will be able to accommodate up to 250 participants at one time.

Exciting new pieces are coming, such as The Rock – which has three integrated slides and five jumping platforms of various heights, The Swing – the world’s first and only modular inflatable swing on the water and The Tramp – engineered for bouncing, providing for an ideal jumping contest with friends to see who can make the highest, longest or coolest move.

Another Australian first in Darwin, and opening a week after to the main park, is the new Wibit Kids Circuit park which is separate from the main installation, providing opportunity for four to nine year olds to have their own safe fun with parents and carers able to swim and supervise alongside.

The new park will not interfere with Recreation Lagoon swimmers ability to do laps around the buoys.

Darwin Waterfront Corporation General Manager, Sam Burke notes “providing signature drawcards for all ages is our focus at the Darwin Waterfront Corporation, and we are very pleased to partner with Aqua Park to deliver Australia’s biggest-ever Wibit Sports Park for locals and visitors.”

Aqua Park Directors Colin Kane and Louise Magee add “we are delighted to be able to work with Darwin Waterfront Corporation to bring this project to fruition and add a new attraction to the precinct.

“We have no doubt this new park will appeal to kids and adults of all ages, there’s something for everyone!”

This weekend will be the last chance to jump on the current Aqua Park, before it is removed to make way for our enormous new park.

The Darwin Waterfront Aqua Park is owned and operated by Aqua Park Pty Ltd.

Tickets and pricing for the new park offering will be released soon and can be purchased at waterfront.nt.gov.au with special discounts available for Darwin Waterfront members.
