Araneta City Fiesta Carnival is back
The much awaited return! Araneta City is bringing a blast from the past this holiday season!

It is bound to be a jolly and nostalgic holiday, especially for the kids from the '70s, '80s, and the '90s, as the iconic Fiesta Carnival is slated to return in Araneta City next month.

According to Araneta City, the famous amusement park will be located at the former site of the Shopwise Araneta City branch, which is just across the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Similar to its original version, the soon-to-reopen Fiesta Carnival will also be a full indoor amusement park.

The group has yet to finalize how much space the attraction will occupy but noted that the target is to cover the whole area.

Details of what the rides and attractions will be, as well as ticket prices, have yet to be released but Araneta City eyes to welcome guests to the Fiesta Carnival in the third week of November, sometime after the lighting of their Giant Christmas Tree.

The return of the historic amusement park will replace the Mini Fiesta Carnival that Araneta City introduced in December last year.

The smaller version of the park last year featured an all-white carousel, carnival games, kiddie rides, and food and beverages stalls. It also saw the COD Christmas On Display, now known as the Grand Christmas On Display.

The Fiesta Carnival was one of the most popular amusement parks in Metro Manila until it closed down in the early 2000s.
