Day out with Thomas @ Queensland Museum Rail Workshops

Day Out With Thomas: The Bubble Tour

Families are invited to join Thomas & Friends for a one-of-a-kind experience at *Day Out With Thomas: The Bubble Tour*, hosted at the Queensland Museum Rail Workshops. This magical bubble-themed adventure brings to life the world of Thomas the Tank Engine with a day full of live performances, interactive activities, and endless fun!

Children and parents alike can meet Thomas, Sir Topham Hatt, and the lively Rusty & Dusty for special performances and delightful meet-and-greets. In the enchanting Bubble Wonderland, bubble machines, a roaming performer, and a whimsical Bubble Dome promise hours of fun, while kids can also explore creative activities like bubble-themed crafts and a character hunt with a Thomas Passport.

The Land Train invites families on a scenic ride, and young visitors can immerse themselves in play zones, from building wooden tracks in the Thomas play area to enjoying the screening room showing *Great Bubbly Build* and the indoor Play Central playground. The Dining Hall offers a special event menu for guests to relax with treats like cakes, coffee, and burgers.
