Crikey, we have so many things happening on the Sunshine Coast for the
September school holidays , I suspect mum and dad's taxis are in for a busy, busy time! I'm even attaching a sticky note to
'make things happen' to ensure we're all on the same page with our very active calendar and to make sure we don't miss out on anything exciting. This list follows on my
Part 1 of Top September School Holiday Activities on the Sunshine Coast.
**1. Kawana Indoor Sports
32 Production Avenue, Warana, QLD 4575
Monday 24 September to Friday 5 October (excluding Tuesday 25 September and 2 October - booked out); and Monday 1 October, which is a public holiday

Kawana Indoor Sports days are way cheaper than vacation care and that is why bookings are absolutely essential.

**2. 'Pick Your Own' at Strawberry Fields
133 Laxton Road, Palmview, QLD 4553
Seven days a week from 8.00am to 5.00pm
FREE entry
**
We've all heard the devastating news that has hit our strawberry farmers, with regards their fruit being sabotaged. What better way to counteract these acts of lunacy than being proactive and helping our farmers out, by visiting our local strawberry farms and picking our own!
Strawberry Fields in Palmview is still open for business, seven days a week too, and with
FREE entry and only paying for your picked strawberries, I cannot think of a better way to ensure your strawbs are fresh. A great way to avoid your strawberries being put 'through the mill' with extra 'hands on' middlemen.
Please support local farmers to ensure they stay in business.
**3. Ride the Night at Aussie World
Saturday 22 September | 6.00pm to 9.30pm
Aussie World, 73 Frizzo Road, Palmview, QLD 4553
From $20 online**
For all the theme-park adrenaline lovers,
Aussie World is a sensational extravaganza at night! Imagine riding all your favourite carnival rides, but under a starry, starry night! Grab your buddies and head down to Aussie World for the
Ride the Night's one night only on 22 September.
General admission starts at $20 online for seniors, pensioners and students with concessions; $25 for everybody else. The gates are opening at 6.00pm and all the fun commences at 6.30pm - three hours of fun!
Aussie World recommends purchasing your tickets online in advance -
tickets can be pre-purchased here via Aussie World website - as the
Ride the Night entry tickets will be very limited at the gate. Children under the age of three are
FREE; and thrill-seekers up to the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult over eighteen.
**4. Spring Holiday Fun at Australia Zoo
1638 Steve Irwin Way, Beerwah, QLD 4519
Saturday 22 September to Sunday 7 October
General Admission from $35**
Woo-hoo! Join Bindi and Robert Irwin during the school holidays having some wild
Spring Holiday Fun at Australia Zoo . Celebrate the opening of
The Laughing Frog Lolly Shop and
Ice Creamery; cool down in
The Laughing Frog Water Park and get to meet some of the new arrivals at Australia Zoo. The newest arrival is a baby girl giraffe who was born on the 14 August - crikey, she's just a bit more than a month old. In
Roo Heaven keep an eye out for little heads popping out of mums' pouches as there are lots of baby joeys around too.
Make sure you don't miss out on all the wildlife fun under the sun at
Australia Zoo , by
pre-purchasing your tickets online here - avoid the queues this way too.
And a little something for the mums out there:
**5. Spring Twilight Markets
Bulcock Beach Esplanade, Caloundra, QLD 4551
Fridays: 28 September | 5 October | 12 October | 5.00pm to 9.00pm
FREE entry**
Three fabulous Friday nights of fun, food, the all-important shopping plus sunsets at one of the most spectacular beaches on the Sunshine Coast and it's all happening at the very popular
Spring Twilight Markets.
After a week at work, the
Spring Twilight Markets give locals and holidaymakers a great excuse to get out, meet up with friends for something to eat and catch a magical sunset over the Pumicestone Passage. Why not set off early for the Twilight Markets (it's better for parking anyway), have a swim, do a bit of a treasure hunt with the kids with the
Downtown Caloundra Street Art Trail, have another dip in the ocean, and be famished just in time for supper - or tea - with the Food Trucks at the Twilight Markets.
The Spring Twilight Markets showcase at least one hundred unique stalls, offering everything from street food to fashion to jewellery.
A great way to spend a Friday evening, setting the tone for a fabulous weekend ahead.
**6. Sunshine Coast Collective Markets
Barns Lane, Coolum Beach, QLD 4573
Sunday 23 September | 8.30am to 12.30pm
FREE browsing
**
My most favourite market is the Sunshine Coast Collective Markets and what makes them even more special is that they're only on
once a month! Absence makes the heart grow fonder….
Sunshine Coast Collective Markets have settled down and are nesting very happily in Coolum on the grounds of Coolum State Primary School Junior Oval. The
Sunshine Coast Collective Markets are not your average
joe-soap type of market - they are a collective of very talented local Sunshine Coast designers, musicians, artists, foodies, creators, vintage wares and lifestyle lovers. I can confirm without a shadow of a doubt, that these markets are uniquely different, offering shoppers high-quality exclusivity.
The organisers of these fabulous markets are dedicated, ensuring their 'product' '
remains at an all-time quality and extraordinaire high, whilst ensuring permanent spots for their very loyal stallholders.'
Are you keen to join the unique
Sunshine Coast Collective Markets ' family - please

Plenty of parking is available on market days and there is no need to leave our four-pawed buddies at home as the
Sunshine Coast Collective Markets happily welcome our furry family members, as long as they are on a leash.
Once you've done your shopping, why not venture down to the beach in Coolum and enjoy the
Coolum Beach Public Art Trail - a creative trail of stunning artworks. The kids will love the excitement of looking for art pieces on the 3km round trip.
Sticky-note the dates, pre-register where necessary and get ready to celebrate the joys of Spring these September school holidays. And look out for Part 1 of the Top September School Holiday Activities on the Sunshine Coast, in case you missed it.
