Rockabye Clothing and Parties are hosting a Faerie Palace with face painting and hair sparkles, Bricks 4 Kidz are hosting a Lego adventure room, the Highett Youth Club are hosting some gymnastics activities as well as performing at the event, and all these groups have also offered party packs as prizes for raffles to be drawn at the event.
