Christmas cheer ramping up in Hume City

With Christmas only a couple of weeks away, the festivities across Hume City are continuing to ramp up.

There’s a variety of activities, events and pop-ups covering more pockets of Hume, with weekend activities and daily activations providing something for everyone from now until December 31.

Christmas will look different this year; while there will be no Carols event, there will be smaller pop up performances bringing Christmas cheer to more pockets of Hume. It’s different, but it will be safer for everyone.
