Redlands Coast AdventureFest FUN DAY
More than 7,500 event-goers came together to enjoy the Redlands Coast AdventureFest Fun Day on Saturday 16 May at Raby Bay Harbour Park, Cleveland.
Presented by Redland City Council and hosted by Ranger Stacey, the free community event delivered a full day of excitement, entertainment and hands-on fun for all ages.
The day featured a mix of high-energy and feel-good experiences, from a thrilling jetpack show over the water and a bubble-blowing pirate entertaining the crowds, to the relaxing charm of goat yoga. Aspiring circus performers impressed audiences as they tried their hand at new skills, while pickleball enthusiasts jumped on the court to have a go. Riders also hopped on spin bikes to power their own healthy smoothies.
There was something for everyone from the impressive emergency service displays, where people got up close with vehicles, equipment and those who keep the community safe, to the tasty food stalls and captivating wildlife shows, all adding to the fun, discovery and sense of adventure that made the day memorable for all ages.
