Sugarworld, Water park in Edmonton, Queensland, Australia
Sugarworld is a council-owned community water park in Edmonton, in the Cairns Region of Queensland, Australia. Its attractions are water slides, pools, a canteen area and a 9-hole adventure mini-golf course that opened in October 2018. Much of the land is occupied by native animals and plant life.
The park underwent complete renovation in 2011 after safety concerns led to temporary closure, with water slides and all facilities fully restored. This overhaul transformed the site into a safe recreational destination.
Sugarworld is run by Cairns Regional Council, which appointed Belgravia Leisure to manage the facility in February 2017. The park's name recalls the sugar industry of the Edmonton area, and its water slides reopened on 20 December 2011 after residents pushed for the park to return.
