Important Update: Winter Lights Night Rides – 21st June Cancelled
Unfortunately, we’ve made the decision to cancel our Winter Lights Night Rides on Friday 21st June due to extended bad weather conditions impacting the final stages of the Log Flume’s annual birthday maintenance.
The Log Flume is the star of our Winter Lights experience, and we want every guest to enjoy the full magic of the event — so this date will not go ahead.
If you have tickets for Night Rides on 21 June or a Day Ticket between 21–23 June, our team will be in touch shortly to offer you the choice of rescheduling to another date or receiving a full refund.
Thank you for your understanding — we can’t wait to welcome you soon under the lights!

The pirate Ship returns SPRING 2025!
We're thrilled to announce that in Spring 2025, we will bring back a beloved classic to the park - The Pirate Ship!
The original Pirate Ship was a guest favourite for almost 40 years and decommissioned in 2017 due to the limited availability of replacement parts. But we have listened to repeated requests from Kiwis asking for it to return, and a new and improved Pirate Ship will be ready to set sail in Spring 2025.
UPCOMING RIDE MAINTENANCE
To keep our rides in tip top shape, all attractions go through a thorough an annual review and service. This is separate to our daily and weekly checks and maintenance procedures, so can take a little longer.
