Get ready to join the fun at White Rose this summer as Kids Carnival arrives with fresh new activities including inflatable axe throwing, penalty shootouts, and flamingo pedal boats from Friday 24 July until Sunday 6 September 2026, bringing six weeks of fairground fun to South Leeds.
Open daily through the school holidays from 11am–9pm*, the free-to-enter Kids Carnival offers a mix of traditional fairground rides and exciting attractions suitable for all ages, including Teacups, Hook-a-Duck, Dodgems, and the famous Runaway Train.
New for this summer, families can put their skills to the test with inflatable axe throwing and a penalty shootout challenge, as well as enjoying a ride in colourful flamingo pedal boats. Whether aiming for the bullseye, seeing who can score the most goals, or enjoying a leisurely float, there’s plenty of new experiences to keep guests entertained throughout the holidays.
Ashleigh Kellett, Deputy Centre Director at White Rose Shopping Centre, said:
“Kids Carnival always goes down a treat with our guests, so we knew we had to bring it back this summer. Packed with fun activities for all ages, it’s another reason that White Rose is the best place to keep the family entertained this summer.
“Whether you’re visiting for the rides, a day out shopping, or to enjoy something delicious to eat, we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone for a summer full of fun.”
With thousands of free parking spaces, a wide choice of family-friendly restaurants and cafés, and entertainment for all ages including the newly opened Volcano Falls adventure golf and the ultimate bowling experience at King Pins, White Rose is the perfect destination for a summer day out.
