While you mightn't be able to jump inside the fire truck due to health restrictions, there's all sorts of action in store, Corrimal's station commander Captain Paul Dorin said.
"Firefighters will be doing exciting live fire demonstrations and safety talks about home fire safety especially with winter not far away.
"There is a 10 per cent increase in the number of house fires during the cooler months with more fires in bedrooms and lounge rooms due to device chargers, heaters, electric blankets, and the like," Cpt Dorin said.
Doors open between 10am and 2pm and if big trucks and bright lights don't get you in, the sausage sizzles might.
