“The day will feature a spectacular show by international skaters and scooter riders, giveaways from the Scooter Hut Parramatta, and a free sausage sizzle,” Blacktown City Mayor Stephen Bali MP said.

“The community fun day is a demonstration of Council’s continuing commitment to youth in Western Sydney.

“It’s a free event that everyone, young and old will enjoy,” Mayor Bali said.

“This skate and youth space is located in one of the fastest growing areas in our City, and we are proud to deliver a modern facility for the enjoyment of young people and their families.”

Blacktown City Council secured a $400,000 grant from the Australian Government to construct the skate park.
