Swansea's Waterfront Winterland is back and there are some new rides and features to enjoy this year including a brand new Alpine bar and thrill-seeking rides.
The city's main festive attraction will be open on Friday, November 15, at 12pm.
We had a look inside before it opens to the public.
Here's what you can expect from Waterfront Winterland this year...
What to expect
Those looking for a festive day out are in luck.
This year there is a range of funfair attractions, food and drink stalls and the return of the undercover ice rink .
The ice rink will also include ‘relaxed sessions’ again this year – skating sessions with reduced sound levels, static lighting and decreased capacity to ensure visitors with autism and learning difficulties can still enjoy the facilities during specially selected timeslots.
New to 2019 is Ice Extreme Power - a fast moving ride which is promised to be adrenalin-fuelled.
There are new fairground rides and attractions which are perfect for the family. These include a snow slide, bungee trampoline, The Grinch ghost train and a family balloon ride.
You will also be able to see Swansea from the skies with the return of the 33m giant wheel – the best way to see views of the city.
Ice Breaker is back which is similar to a twister funfair ride.
However, there is no Sky View this year - a ride which offered views of the city whilst spinning around at 40m high.
There's also the return of dodgems and the North Pole fun house and various merry-go-rounds.
As well as rides, there will also be entertainment including live music and DJs every night.
Food and drink
There's a brand-new alpine bar, where you can enjoy a beer, mulled wine, Baileys hot chocolate and cocktails in the cosiest of spaces and there's even blankets to keep you warm.
There's also a new festive Yorkshire pudding wrap station where you can fill your wrap with slow cooked hot meat, fresh local vegetables and gravy.
Other food on offer includes:
- A sweet hut
- Burger and hot dog van
- Coffee hut which includes donuts and crepes
Waterfront Winterland is running until Sunday, January 6, so you've got plenty of time to get down and experience it for yourself.
