Kids Build This City
Get the whole family along to the Sydney Opera House forecourt this long weekend to participate in We Built This City. It’s a fun, interactive construction site!
There will be thousands of cardboard boxes for little kids, and big ones too, to build anything they can think of. You could make some skyscrapers, a bridge, or even the Opera House! Construction workers will be on hand to offer advice while the DJ spins all your favourite tunes.
At the end of the day the city will be squashed into a recyclable heap of cardboard rubble!
