🎡 THE GIANT WHEEL IS COMING TO REDFEST! 🎡

Get ready to see Redfest from a whole new perspective! 👀❤️

We’re incredibly excited to welcome the Giant Wheel to Redfest for the very first time, proudly brought to you by the Showmen’s Guild of Australasia. The Showmens Guild of Australasia

Standing at an incredible 30 metres high, this is the largest mobile wheel in Queensland — and definitely the biggest wheel ever to operate at Redfest! 🎡🔥

With 20 large, family-sized gondolas, there’s plenty of room to enjoy the ride together, with each gondola accommodating up to 6 adults and 2 children.

✨ Take in the panoramic views across Redfest, Cleveland and the surrounding Redlands Coast from 30 metres in the air!

Whether you’re chasing the perfect photo, looking for a little thrill, or simply want to see the festival from above…

The Giant Wheel is one Redfest experience you won’t want to miss! 🎡🍓❤️
