Step Right Up! The Carnival Is Coming to Bacchus Marsh
Get ready for three days of colour, laughter and carnival excitement at the Bacchus Marsh Strawberry & Cherry Festival Carnival 2026!
Bring the family, meet your friends and enjoy the sights, sounds and thrills of a classic carnival as part of the festival.
There’s something for every age and level of bravery. Little ones can enjoy favourites like the Kids Carousel and T Cups, while families can take a spin on the Dumbo Flying Elephants or explore the Pirates Nest Fun Factory.
Ready for a bigger thrill? Take on the Dodgem Cars, ride through the Dragon Castle Ghost Train, or see if you’re brave enough for the Xtreme Ride, Skyflyer, Twister and Warrior.
Between rides, try your luck at the carnival games, pick up a show bag and treat yourself to something delicious from the food stalls. There’ll be plenty to enjoy together, whether you’re chasing the biggest rides or soaking up the festival atmosphere.
Make the most of the special ticket offers, including multi-purchase discounts, a family value pack and 2-for-1 tickets on Friday from 5:00pm to 7:00pm.
