Overview

This winter, you can relive all the fun bits of your childhood from a spot 250 metres off the ground, at Sydney Tower Eye's new retro pop-up.

Running every day throughout July and August, Sydney's Highest Playground will see the tower's Observation Deck transformed into the sky-high paradise of your inner child's dreams, featuring a riot of activities and games from the 80s, 90s and today.

Venture up to the neon-drenched space for the ultimate game-time session, dabbling in some giant Connect 4, Giant Jenga, table tennis, KerPlunk and maybe even the glow-in-the-dark hula hoops. It's all backed by a retro soundtrack, too, packed full of nostalgic old-school jams.

Head up on select nights and you'll also find a couple of exclusive shakes from Milky Lane. These guys are whipping up a White Chocolate Tim Tam number and a decadent Chocolate Caramello Koala creation. Keep an eye on the Sydney Tower Eye Facebook page to see when they're available.

Oh, and dress-ups are definitely encouraged — time to dig out those parachute pants and get high.

Sydney's Highest Playground is open daily from 9am–9pm.
