Visit us during the school holiday break to enjoy our fun and interactive activities to keep the kids entertained this holiday period. We know how expensive the holidays can be, so we’ve created a FREE program to keep you and your family entertained at one of the most exciting projects in Western Sydney and in fact, Australia! Come and explore the Western Sydney International Airport Experience Centre and let your imagination run wild as you design, construct, and create your own airport along with many other activities!
During your stop over, you will be taken through a series of interactive activities to learn about the region, its people and understand the opportunities that will come from Australia’s first smart airport. Discover how Sydney’s new airport will help shape the future of Western Sydney. The children will have the opportunity to unlock their inner designer skills with plenty of arts and craft activities at the Centre. See below for a weekly breakdown of the planned activities.
We encourage all families and friends to view this once in a lifetime project and experience Western Sydney International Airport come to life.
