From late November, Melbourne is transformed into a Christmas wonderland featuring a range of festive events and activities including the giant 17.5m digital Christmas tree at Federation Square, light projections across the iconic Melbourne Town Hall and State Library of Victoria, the famous Myer windows and an incredible array of decorations taking over the city. The best part is – it’s free!
The 2023 Christmas Festival launched 24 November and will run until Christmas Day. View the full Christmas Festival Program.
