Each year, the City of Melbourne hosts a free month-long festival in the Melbourne CBD known as the Christmas Festival, which brings a little bit of magic to Melbourne for the Christmas season.
Many events and activities are planned during the festival at Melbourne locations, including Federation Square, the Melbourne Town Hall and the Docklands.
Christmas Festival Melbourne 2024 Dates, Locations & Santa Schedule
From Santa’s workshop to the massive illuminated tree, there’s plenty to love at Christmas Square. Wander through endless glittering decorations day and night.
It wouldn’t be Christmas without a trip to Bourke Street Mall to see the iconic Myer windows.
Venture out under the starry lights of one of Melbourne’s favourite laneways for a special night market series. Bring the family or meet up with friends as you meander the open-air laneway. Tick off all your gift shopping and pick up locally-made Christmas trinkets. Don’t skip the street food stalls and summer bevs from the pop-up bar.
