Growing on the successful ten-year partnership with The Wiggles since 2005, Dreamworld will be extending the footprint of their world for children to incorporate several new television icons from ABC KIDS.

Inspired by and designed in collaboration with the popular Children’s brand, ABC KIDS WORLD will be every child’s fantasy-come-reality where their characters will come to life in an interactive and colourful world of fun, rides and games.  ABC KIDS WORLD will be the only one of its kind in the world, complementing existing Wiggles World attractions with rides, playgrounds and characters from Giggle and Hoot, Play School and Bananas in Pyjamas.

Go on a mini adventure in a Giggle and Hoot inspired area.  Play on the Giggle and Hoot Pirate Ship, try the new Hop and Hoot ride, and mingle with Hoot and Hootabelle before he heads out on the Night Watch and she flies through the night sky to Twinklify the stars.

Come inside, it’s Play School!  …  Inspired by Australia’s longest running children’s television series, ABC KIDS WORLD features a number of immersive experiences where the children can indulge their imaginations as they explore the new World’s play areas.
