MetrO 12 - City Beach Central

City Beach Primary School

The last MetrO of the season is upon us, and to celebrate the finale we'll have a maypole dance... well sort of, but instead of a maypole we'll all dance around a water-tower! This event is on a new map that fills in the missing bit right in the centre of City Beach. Anyone who likes hills will be happy, especially if they find the vertical beach!

After the event, the seasons winners in all the categories will be announced and awarded.

The start will be at City Beach Primary School, from the Kalari Avenue side. Recommended parking is at the City Beach Civic Centre, off Templetonia Crescent, adjacent to the school on its north side.
