Leisureland
Fair was an amusement park which operated on this site from 1984 to
1992. It is now a housing estate with the only reference to it being a
street named after it. The amusement park was situated on a large plot
of land with a steam train which would take passengers from the carpark
to the park itself. The park consisted of a large number of attractions
including a custom built steel roller coaster, log flume, waterslides,
mini golf, a function centre and various other rides. The only remaining
part of Leisureland Fair is the former Function Centre, otherwise known
as "The Castle". This was renovated into a Community Centre and Place
of Worship by the Ahmadiyya Movement. The Ahmadiyya Centre Melbourne was
officially opened by Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih the 5th on his blessed
Asia Pacific tour 2013. He led the Friday prayers and Friday sermon on
the opening of this Centre on 11 October 2013.
