The rich history of Wonderpark is a significant and inseparable part of the history of our City. The park is not only a part of the city's urban fabric, playing host to a range of activities and events, but is also a part of the social fabric - it is a place where we come to meet, to laugh, to relax and to have fun.

Learn more about the history of the park below, and share your personal story of the park. Selected stories contributed by you will be compiled into a booklet that will be shared at our community libraries.

I remember being here for the annual Christmas parade where Santa finishes at the big Christmas tree in the centre of the park. Magical
