It's show time every weekend in Mandurah at
King Carnival – complete with rides, tattooed ticket sellers and fairy floss.
The fun fair, which is also open every day during school holidays, is free to enter. Ride
prices start at $5, or less if you buy tickets in bulk.
Traditional fairground games such as putting a ball into a clown's mouth are augmented with modern counterparts, including a Guitar Hero contest.
My daughter queued patiently for a go on the
bungee trampoline – and was exultant about the experience, which allowed her to do flips for the first time.
Look at me!
Other attractions include dodgem cars, Ferris wheel, arcade games,
action rides, and roller coasters. For the littlies, there are a series of gentle rides, including one resembling Disneyland's famous tea cups, and several bouncy castle set-ups.
Bouncy heaven
King Carnival also offers birthday parties, mini-golf, and corporate functions. Junk food and toilets are available on site.
Merry go round
