Get ready, get set, and go head down to the Ark Energy Family Fun Day, one of the Great Barrier Reef festival’s well-loved events.
This jam-packed day filled with free, crazy, fun and exciting demonstrations, games, competitions and entertainment galore on Airlie Beach’s beautiful foreshore with activities and fantastic prizes up for grabs.
Donut miss the delicious donut-eating competition that kicks off the day's festive fun! Once your tummies are settled, get ready for thrilling races, exciting circus workshops, captivating juggling shows, and an interactive treasure hunt, with the treasure hunt winner being crowned at 2pm.
If that's not enough to fill your boots, International DJ Charly Templar will be hosting DJ workshops for kids, while Nick Wynne Jones will be producing some fabulous face painting.
With a focus on interactive reef education, the Eco Barge sculpture tent and various other stalls will be manned by various conservation, government and science groups. Daydream Island will be present showing the corals and information from their Living Reef and coral restoration program. Also, the Ngaro and Giya Traditional Owners will be running interactive workshops where the kids can participate in storytelling, weaving, ochre painting and having a ‘go’ at throwing a boomerang or spear among others.
Alongside all this extraordinary entertainment Ark Energy and a selection of Whitsunday local tour operators including Cruise Whitsunday’s and Ocean Rafting will be on hand to help the kids have fun learning about the reef system ending in the famous treasure hunt, with some amazing prizes.
