Nunawading offers a range of activities for culture and exercise: The Round presents a professional theatre and music season, alongside Tunstall Park Playground and the recreational opportunities at Walker Park. Walking trails in the surrounding area offer a distinct focus. When choosing, you can weigh up whether culture, play, sport or walks through bushland is the deciding factor for you.

Theatre and music at The Round

The Round in Nunawading presents a professional theatre and music season featuring plays, musicals, opera, ballet and performances for children. The range brings together different forms of performing arts; if culture is an important reason for choosing this destination, you can select by the type of performance you prefer.

The types of performances listed can help you narrow down your options if you are looking for a particular genre rather than just any event. Performances for children are also part of the programme. If a specific performance is the deciding factor, check The Round’s current performance listings before making plans.

Play and sport

Tunstall Park Playground is in Nunawading and offers accessible swings and play equipment for children aged 2 to 12. The age range helps you match the play option to the children’s ages; the accessible swings are another specific feature. Unlike the children’s performances at The Round, this is a different kind of activity: here it’s about play, while there it’s about a performance. This can make it easier to choose if you are weighing up a cultural event or a play option based on children’s interests.

Walker Park: Sport and recreation

Walker Park in Nunawading offers sporting and recreational activities: Australian Rules football, cricket, gymnastics and tennis, as well as walking, dog walking and play. You can focus on one of the listed sports or another recreational activity; Walker Park is not limited to a single activity. This is a different approach to planning than at The Round: there you choose by type of performance, while here you choose by the sport or recreational activity you want.

Walking trails in the surrounding area

In the surrounding area of Nunawading, at the western end of Blackburn Creeklands, walking trails pass through preserved bushland, alongside a winding creek and an open grassy area. Unlike Walker Park, the focus here is on walking trails and landscape features. When choosing a walk, you can weigh up whether you would rather take in these landscape features or the range of sporting and recreational activities in the park.

The walking trails are in the surrounding area; The Round, Tunstall Park Playground and Walker Park are located in Nunawading. This makes it possible to distinguish between cultural and park activities at the destination and a walk in the surrounding area.
