About this event

A nature filled night of camping and outdoor activities is easy and fun at Centennial Parklands.

This authentic camping experience just 10 minutes away from the CBD, is a special way to bond with family. Centennial Parklands shows you all the delights of camping; you will enjoy a twilight tour, campfire stories, sleeping under the stars and much more!

Throughout the year, our program will have different themes:

March– Raft Races

Learn how to build robust little rafts from natural materials and test to see if they float…

April – The Best Cubby Houses

Become a Master Cubby Builder using only materials you find in the bush…

May – Stargazing

Not only do you get to sleep under the stars – the Sydney City Skywatchers will set up their telsecopes for us and share their knowledge about the beautiful night sky …

September – Trails and Tracks… who lives in the park?

Learn to read the park like no one else and find out who lives in the nest, burrows, and boxes and who loves to eat what!

October – A Spook-tacular Time

Join us around the camp fire for some story of drop bears, bunyips and other creature that might be found in Australia! Don’t forget to bring you dress up and you might be in for a treat!

November – Bush Food Bash

Our Aboriginal educators will join us in November and you will see which of the many plants in Centennial Park make a beautiful addition to our BBQ!
