Walk Down Memory Lane: Australia's Wonderland

Australia’s Wonderland was an integral part in the life of a Sydneysiders life in the 80s, 90s and early 2000s.

Despite only being opened for 18 years, the experiences and memories we have of the theme park will never disappear.

With iconic rides like The Bush Beast, Beastie, and the Demon, there was something for young and old.

From Hanna Barbera Land to Medieval Faire (Old Botany Bay), Goldrush, Transylvania and The Beach, Australia’s Wonderland was truly legendary.

So, join us as we take a trip down memory lane and remember the incredible times we had at Wonderland.
