With fresh turf, new fencing and an upgraded playground already in place, the site is transforming into a relaxed, modern waterfront venue for the whole community to enjoy.

A grand opening weekend celebration is on the cards, with more details coming soon  👀🍻

As part of the Festive Lights Competition, our Best Street Display winners didn’t just light up their homes, they brought their whole street together. 

As their prize, the winning street enjoyed a street party, celebrating the community spirit that makes Hedland so special.

From twinkling lights to shared laughter, this exclusive event was a reminder that Festive Lights is about more than decorations, it’s about neighbours connecting, creating memories and spreading joy.

A huge thank you to everyone who got involved, and to Horizon Power for helping power the magic ✨

Thinking of joining in? 👀 Festive Lights returns at the end of the year, and we’d love to see even more homes and streets take part.

📸 Scroll through the photos to relive the celebration.
