Bunjil Place Lights Up This Christmas

Kick off the festive season at the popular Twilight Christmas Makers Market and Lighting of the Christmas Tree event, returning to Bunjil Place on Saturday, 30 November, from 3 – 9pm.

The Bunjil Place Plaza will once again transform into a lively outdoor market, featuring over 70 vibrant stalls brimming with unique goods and delectable foods. Enjoy live music, little elves’ workshops, food trucks, an outdoor bar, and roving performers at this entertaining, family-friendly event that you won’t want to miss.

At 8pm, join the City of Casey’s newly elected Mayor and Councillors as they ceremoniously light up the Bunjil Place Christmas Tree, a heartwarming tradition that delights both the young and the young at heart. This year’s tree is presented in collaboration with the City of Casey’s Aboriginal Gathering Place. Together with the Yarn and Art collective, they have curated beautiful works of art that will be featured in the decoration of the tree, celebrating both the festive season and the rich cultural heritage of the local Indigenous community.

Before the tree lighting, indulge in some holiday shopping and find the perfect Christmas gifts. Explore a wide selection of fashion, jewellery, accessories, homewares, ceramics, textiles, art prints, stationery, kids’ items, lifestyle products, and delicious foods, all crafted by local artisans and makers.

Entry to the Twilight Christmas Market and Lighting of the Tree event is free. So, whether you’ve been naughty or nice, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

The Bunjil Place Twilight Christmas Makers Market is presented in partnership with The Creative Assembly Co.
