Free Fun Alert! Nickelodeon Takes Over Hawaiian Shopping Centres in a WA-First
2 Apr 2026
With household budgets under pressure, Nickelodeon is bringing big-name school holiday fun closer to home, delivering a Western Australian first by taking over Hawaiian’s neighbourhood shopping centres across Perth and giving local kids the chance to meet some of Nickelodeon’s most loved characters.
Across the school holidays, ten Hawaiian neighbourhood shopping centres will transform into must-visit holiday hubs, making it easier for families to stay local, travel less and spend less, without missing out on big holiday experiences.
The headline attraction is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem Ninja Course, a giant inflatable obstacle course making its first-ever appearance in Western Australia. Bursting with high-energy fun, the larger-than-life course challenges kids to climb, crawl, slide and race their way to the finish line in true ninja style.
From Hillarys to Melville, Forrestfield to Bassendean, families can meet iconic Nickelodeon characters including Chase from PAW Patrol, SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as the action rolls through centres across the metro area.
Younger fans can get creative at the PAW Patrol Craft Village, painting their own wooden characters to take home, topped off with a very special in-person visit from Chase himself.
Beyond the entertainment, Hawaiian centres are also becoming go-to school holiday food destinations, with viral dining favourites drawing families in for easy, affordable meals between activities. Highlights include Christo’s at Hawaiian’s Newpark, Louder Louder at Hawaiian’s Park Centre, Rocky Ridge Brewing Co. at Duncraig by Hawaiian, and Pauly’s Chicken at Hawaiian’s Noranda.
Adults are also getting a treat, with cult cafĂ© favourite ‘Daisies Cottesloe’ popping up at Hawaiian’s Mezz with its newly launched ‘Side Cart’. Running Wednesday to Friday across both weeks of the school holidays, the pop-up will serve 100 free coffees each day. Located right by the playground, Hawaiian’s Mezz becomes an easy stop and the perfect place to settle in for a relaxed, family-friendly day out.
With free entertainment, iconic characters, viral food and coffee on offer, Hawaiian’s Nickelodeon school holiday takeover promises big fun, without the big spend.

From Perth is OK!:
Free Nickelodeon fun is coming to shopping centres across Perth this school holidays
If you’re looking for something to do with the kids these school holidays that won’t require a full day out or a big spend, these neighbourhood shopping centres have you covered.
Nickelodeon has taken over 10 Hawaiian centres across Perth — a WA first — bringing character meet-and-greets, a giant inflatable obstacle course and craft activities to suburbs from Hillarys to Melville, Forrestfield to Bassendean.
The headline act is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem Ninja Course, a large inflatable obstacle course running at Hawaiian’s Forrestfield (until Saturday 11 April) and Hawaiian’s Newpark from Monday 13 to Friday 17 April. Kids can also meet Mikey and Leo from the Turtles at both centres across the two weeks.
SpongeBob SquarePants is doing the rounds too — appearing at Hawaiian’s Mezz, Noranda and Hillarys by Hawaiian across both weeks — while Chase from PAW Patrol heads to Duncraig, Park Centre and Bassendean. Younger kids can also get hands-on at the PAW Patrol Craft Village, painting wooden characters to take home, with a visit from Chase himself.
For the adults, Daisies Cottesloe is popping up at Hawaiian’s Mezz with its new Side Cart — running Wednesday to Friday across both weeks of the holidays and handing out 100 free coffees each day. Positioned right next to the playground, we’re sure plenty of parents out there will appreciate the caffeine hit.
All activities are free and no bookings are needed, and run from 11am-2pm at participating centres.
