LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL THIS EASTER SCHOOL HOLIDAYS WITH THE RETURN OF SKATE AND PLAY AT PARRAMATTA NIGHTS 

The massive six-week event series kicks off in Parramatta's CBD this Thursday!

Parramatta Nights, the City of Parramatta’s award-winning outdoor event series, officially launches this Thursday (17 March). The program will feature an incredible line-up of family-friendly activities, including the return of the beloved Skate and Play roller-rink.

Running throughout the Easter school holidays, Skate and Play (8-23 April) will transform Parramatta’s picturesque Prince Alfred Square into a hub of family-friendly fun ranging from roller-skating to amusement rides.

“If you’re looking to entertain the kids these school holidays, you can’t go past our Skate and Play event. Get your skates on and go for a spin around our outdoor rink or enjoy the carnival atmosphere with a selection of amusement rides and interactive inflatable dog sculptures,” City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Donna Davis said.
