Christmas is in town

Brimbank is gearing up for the festive season as Christmas quickly approaches.

Locals can soak up the festive spirit at a free festive fun day organised by Brimbank council on 30 November.

The day will be filled with activities and performances with stage shows, circus acts, African drumming workshops and stilt walkers keeping locals entertained.

Kids can enjoy face painting, arts and crafts, hobby horse races, hula hooping, and cheerful singalongs.

Animal lovers can pat and cuddle cute critters at the petting zoo and movie fans can sit back, relax and enjoy screenings of ‘Elf’ and ‘Despicable Me 4’.

There will be a ‘come and try’ sports zone featuring all-abilities tennis and basketball, and a dedicated sensory-friendly space designed to make the event comfortable, calming, and inclusive for all guests.

Star Weekly understands Santa Claus will also take time out of his busy work schedule to make an appearance.

Festive fun day will run from 11am-3pm on Sunday 30 November at Errington Reserve and St Albans Community Centre.

Food and drinks will be available to purchase on the day, and bookings are required for the movie sessions.
