Question 1

What is Miniraves?

Accepted Answer

Miniraves is an immersive, rave-style music experience for families, designed to inspire movement, imagination and shared moments between minis and their grown-ups.

Each event transforms the venue into a vibrant world of music and play, brought to life through live DJs, full-scale lighting, visuals and production, balloon drops, confetti and playful surprises throughout the day.

At the heart of every event is the Miniraves Feature Set — a themed, high-energy moment where music and production come together as the main highlight of the experience.

Miniraves takes place at centrally located venues, with each city bringing the Miniraves world to life in its own way.

✦     ✦     ✦     ✦     ✦

Miniraves is a high-energy, rave-style event centred around the main stage, with music, lighting, crowds and production moments throughout the day.

Rave-Style Environment & Sensory Note

While designed for younger audiences and their grown-ups, it remains a high-energy experience with music, movement, crowds and production moments throughout the day. The experience is led by the main stage and Feature Set moments.

Audio levels are intentionally lowered and carefully managed by our audio technician for a daytime event. However, every child is different, and parents and guardians should consider their child’s individual comfort levels when deciding if this experience is right for them.

What to Expect

Lighting & visuals
✦ Colour effects and time-coded visuals
✦ Occasional flashing lights during the Feature Set

Sound & effects
✦ Music levels reduced compared to a typical rave
✦ Energetic moments, bass hits and special-effect sounds moments

Crowds & movement
✦ A lively, stimulating main-stage environment and throughout the venue
✦ The dancefloor may become crowded during peak times, particularly during the 30-minute Feature Set
✦ Queues are expected for free and token-based activities

Interactive & production moments
✦ Giant inflatables
✦ Balloon drops
✦ Confetti bursts
✦ Sparkular and CO₂ effects

✦     ✦     ✦     ✦     ✦

❣️ Important to Note

Miniraves is not a low-stimulus event.
Even areas away from the main stage will still have music, activity and movement throughout the day.

If your child is sensitive to sound, light or busy environments, we recommend:
✦ Bringing earmuffs or hearing protection
✦ Taking breaks away from the main stage
✦ Arriving early to settle in before peak moments

If your child requires a low-stimulus, quiet or highly controlled sensory environment, Miniraves may not be the right experience for your family.

Every child is different — families are encouraged to move at their own pace throughout the day 💛

Question 2

Sensory and Rave-style Environment

Accepted Answer

Sensory & Rave-Style Environment

Miniraves is a high-energy, rave-style event centred around the main stage.
When deciding if this experience is right for your child, please carefully consider the following:

✦ Flashing lights & visuals

The MINIRAVES Feature Set includes time-coded visuals, colour effects and occasional flashing lights as part of the show.

✦ Sound & special-effect audio

Music levels are lower than a typical rave-style event and managed by our audio technician for a daytime experience.
However, the event still includes energetic moments, bass hits and special-effect sounds designed intentionally as part of the production.

✦ Crowds during peak moments

The main stage and dancefloor are the focal point of the event and can become busy and crowded, particularly during the 30-minute MINIRAVES Feature Set, which is the most high-energy part of the day.
Please note that other areas of the venue may also be busy, even away from the main stage.

✦ Queues & waiting times

Queues should be expected for both free and token-based activities, especially during peak periods.

✦ Interactive & production moments

Throughout the day, the event includes high-energy interactive moments such as:
✦ Giant inflatables being released and moved through the crowd
✦ Balloon drops and objects entering the dancefloor space
✦ Confetti bursts and surprise production cues
✦ Sparkular and CO₂ effects
✦ Time-coded production moments led from the main stage

These moments may involve increased movement, excitement and crowd interaction.

✦     ✦     ✦     ✦     ✦

Important to note

Miniraves is not a low-stimulus event.
Music, activity, movement and crowd energy are present throughout the venue for the full duration of the event.

If your child is sensitive to sound, light, crowds, sudden movement or interactive elements, we recommend:
✦ Bringing earmuffs or hearing protection
✦ Taking breaks away from the main stage and high-traffic areas
✦ Arriving early to settle in before peak moments

If your child requires a quiet, low-stimulus or highly controlled sensory environment, Miniraves may not be the right experience for your family.

Every child is different — families are encouraged to move at their own pace and choose what feels right for them 💛

✦     ✦     ✦     ✦     ✦

Epilepsy & Photosensitive Conditions

Miniraves includes flashing lights, animated visuals, LED screens and time-coded production moments that are an essential part of the show and cannot be removed.

For this reason, Miniraves may not be suitable for individuals with epilepsy or photosensitive conditions.

While there are areas away from the main stage where families can take breaks, these areas are not in direct view of the show, and visual effects may still be noticeable throughout the venue.

Families are encouraged to carefully consider individual needs and consult a medical professional if unsure.
