Bubble Emporium

Free event

Back by popular demand for its third year in a row, The Bubble Emporium returns to Cairns Festival!

Featuring 20,000 bubbles per minute, this joy-filled spectacle transforms the Esplanade into a giant bubble party, where people of all ages are invited to dance in the street, play, connect, and celebrate together beneath a sky filled with shimmering bubbles.

Crafted by The Mask Family, this interactive experience encourages audiences to reconnect with nostalgia, imagination, and each other. It's not just about bubbles - it's about creating a welcoming space where everyone can let loose, share a laugh, and be part of something magical together.
