From Tuesday 30 September to Saturday 4 October, the centre will host Cars Imagine the Thrills Activity Zones, giving children the chance to dive into hands-on experiences with their favourite characters, Lightning McQueen and Mater.

The free sessions, running daily from 10:0 am to 2:00 pm at Level 1, Centre Court, invite little fans to unleash their imagination. Kids can design their own personalised pencil cases, paint Cars-themed plasters, and take part in activities that bring the spirit of Route 66 to life.
It’s all part of Westfield’s wider partnership with Disney, rolling out Cars-themed activity zones across Queensland shopping centres these school holidays. Each event aims to give families a fun, interactive day out while keeping the school holiday buzz alive.
Adding even more excitement, Westfield members can go in the running to win a family holiday to Disneyland Resort in California. The prize includes three nights’ accommodation and return economy airfares for two adults and two children, with entries open daily through the Westfield app until 13 October. The winner will get to experience the ultimate thrill, stepping into the real-life world of Cars Land.
