“International and state border closures, a drop in consumer confidence to visit the CBD and staff availability issues as a result of Covid-19 have meant that we have been unable to offer our guests access to our attractions every day, however we are looking forward to moving forward to the next exciting chapter here in Darling Harbour.

“Now, with the doors set to be open every day, we invite guests to visit their animal and wax friends and re-ignite their passion for outdoor adventure and experiences, with some exciting activations in the pipeline.  Also, a reminder that all guests will need to book online and in advance so they don’t miss out!”
