Rotorua Agrodome Activities and Agroventures Adrenaline Fun!Sheep &Farm shows,bungee,zorb,swoop,Freefall Xtreme.......
The Agroventures is run adjacent to the Agrodome, so a full day of entertainment is available in one location. Rotorua Agrodome Farm Show
THE SHEEP SHOW and FARM SHOW These shows have been running for years, with tourists from all over the world getting a thrill from seeing the farm activities in action. They watch sheep shearing, see the highly entertaining demonstration of sheep dogs working, try bottle feeding lambs, milking cows, and watch a sheep auction. Something many New Zealander’s take for granted........... this is a real novelty for people from countries where these activities are not usual. THE AGRODOME At the woollen mill, you also have the opportunity to see the wool being processed from off the sheep's backs, to becoming wool yarn,and finally, knitted into garments. The fun of this popular Rotorua Agrodome activity is when they invite members of the audience to participate. It is a very entertaining, yet educational show.
Children love the Farm Show where they are taken around on a tractor. Walking amongst the different farm animals, they can experience them at close quarters. These include sheep, cattle, deer, alpaca, ostrich and emus. They also get a taste of what horticultural farming is all about as they see kiwifruit, olives, feijoas and apples growing naturally. For some this may be the first time they learn that milk, meat, and fruit do not come from "the shop"! A TASTE of AGRODOME FARM SHOW
Adrenaline Pumping Agroventures Rotorua ActivitiesWith the Agrodome and Agroventures all in one location you have a whole range of new activities to fill your day. Not your usual adrenaline rush activities either. These are adrenaline rushes of a different kind!Yes, you can bungee from the 43 meter tower.But have you ever tried a Zorb? Or a Shweeb? Or even a Swoop? No ?.....well here is the place to try these unusual fun activities. SWOOP - is your chance to experience hang gliding – without actually hang gliding. You are harnessed into a hang gliding harness, with one or two friends if you prefer,then hauled 40 meters into the air. One lucky person gets to pull the rip chord and...........you Swoop ground ward. THE SWOOP - A You Tube Video
As this is the only Shweeb in the world, you will need to come to Rotorua Agroventures by the Rotorua Agrodome to actively try it. ZORB - seems to be extremely popular. Although why rolling down a steep hill sitting inside a huge clear plastic ball is so popular, I am not sure. You are harnessed in to place before your whole world turns upside down, round and round. I wonder if anyone has counted how many somersaults they end up doing. A Radio announcement for the birth of the Zorb
