Celebration Time

The Wharf Mooloolaba is turning 30, and you’re invited to the party.

The Wharf Mooloolaba and SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast are celebrating turning 30 in August with a huge weekend party with heaps of family fun.

Wharf Mooloolaba co-owner Dirk Long says it has been a big few years for the precinct, and the team is looking forward to everyone coming together to enjoy celebration activities on August 24 and 25.

SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast regional general manager Quinn Clarke says the celebration will be like the precinct’s Family Fun Days with the addition of plenty of special festivities to mark the momentous occasion.

Free family activities will include face painting, reptile display, a huge jumping castle and super slide. Discounted tickets for SEA LIFE will be available and there will be water activities in the river with Sunreef Mooloolaba, free river cruises with Coastal Cruises Mooloolaba and sailing with the Mooloolaba Yacht Club. “There’ll be live music, roving entertainers and a fireworks display on Saturday evening, giveaways and more,’’ Mr Clarke adds.

Mr Long says the celebrations are also an opportunity to look back onthe precinct’s history. “Both The Wharf and SEA LIFE have been Mooloolaba icons for decades so we will be running competitions. We want to hear about people’s memories and see photos of everyone enjoying the precinct over the years.”
