The District Docklands is set to transform into a winter wonderland. No need to hit the slopes or get any snow gear sorted this season; you can get your thrills and spills right here in Melbourne.
Hop onto a tube and hurtle down the 15-metre long District Ice Slide, which has been set up at the Square next to Uniqlo. Bring your beanie, scarf, gloves and a gold coin or two. The gold coin is charged per slide, and the money raised is for Kids Under Cover, which combats youth homelessness.
This year, the District Docklands team are introducing an evening edition, just for over-18s. There will be DJs, coffee, beer from local brewery Urban Alley and doughnuts from San Churro.
The District Ice Slide is on from June 29 until July 14, and open 11am to 5pm daily. The line for the slide closes at 4pm sharp.
