Frankston’s Christmas Festival
Browse through the European Christmas Village, and discover European-inspired gifts, as well as delicious treats, German lager from Moon Dog and live entertainment. If you’re looking for more presents, you’ll find them at Little Beauty Christmas Market, which will be packed with stalls showcasing clothing, arts, homewares and more.
For some family fun, join the Smurfs for a winter wonderland live show at the Arts Centre, and make memories with an Ugly Christmas Sweater photoshoot. Take photos with Santa, go on carnival rides and enjoy roving entertainment like Candy Cane stilt walkers.
At 6pm, the official Christmas parade will begin. Watch as the procession, including community groups, elves, Mrs Claus and Santa, make their way towards Davey Street.
Stick around until 9:15pm for the spectacular fireworks display, as well as the official lighting of the historic Norfolk Pine tree. If you miss it, the tree will light up each night in December at 8pm.
This festival is free to attend, and will take over Davey, Young, Baxter and Playne Streets. Start planning your visit here.
