Trafford Centre’s huge splash park and giant beach are returning for summer
Get in that summer spirit with this family friendly day out
The Trafford centre has announced the return of its huge Summer Daze event which features a splash park, giant beach and fairground — coming next month.
The enormous beach including two splash parks will be heading to the Trafford Centre this summer and promises to be bigger and better than before.
The event last year — which brought a 20,000 square metre splash pool with water fountain palm trees, wheel-shaped buckets that fill to the top before splashing down on those underneath, and multiple water jets — was a huge success seeing thousands of visitors.
Along with the beach area there will be two splash pools coming to the Summer Daze event which are free for visitors to use after they pay a £3 entry fee.
Thousands of families are set to descend on the site again this year, which will bring holiday feels to Trafford and cool visitors down with a water fountain, palm trees, water wheel buckets and multiple water jets.
The summer park will see plenty of entertainment and things to do including Bumper Boatz, Jumping Frog, Waterballs, Starflyer and roller coasters.
In addition to the rides, which are paid for either individually with tokens or a wristband, there will also be extra free activities offered on a covered stage.
Every Thursday afternoon throughout the school holidays, there will be free hair braiding, temporary tattoos, and various craft workshops. And Saturday afternoons will host fun shows where families can sing and dance along to the summer’s greatest hits.
There will also be a designated sandy deck chair area where people can take some time out to catch some rays and just chill after they’ve had their fill of all the fun there is to offer.
Food, drink and ice cream vans will keep guests hydrated and fed with no need to leave the site while families enjoy a day out of fun in the sun.
Summer Daze will run outside the Great Hall from Saturday, July 22nd until Sunday, September 3rd, opening from 11am – 8pm.
Entry to the fair is £3 if booked online and £4 on the door. Visit the website for more information or to book click HERE.
