A Christmas Experience
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! And Melbourne’s Christmas Wonderland is kicking off the festive season with a bang. From now through to Christmas Eve, you’ll find billowing circus tents taking over Caulfield Racecourse.
It’s time to go an adventure and immerse yourself in the Christmas spirit - and there is NO better place to do just that, than at The Christmas Tree Farm!
The Stonnington Christmas Carols are lighting up the season once again, bringing families together for two magical evenings of music, picnics on the grass, and all the festive feels. From beloved hosts to incredible musicians and a sprinkle of Christmas sparkle in the sky, these community celebrations are the perfect way to kick off the holidays. Bring a rug, gather your people, and get ready to make some merry memories!
Great shops for gifts
Who says you have to wait for December to feel that festive magic? Trudi’s Place has found their newest home in Koo Wee Rup — the sister store to their much-loved original at the Tyabb Packing House - it’s Christmas all year round here — and it’s absolutely magical.
Stepping into the charming Little Elwood is like stepping into a magical wonderland for the young and young at heart. The shopfront is easy to spot from Ormond Road’s bustling strip - it’s the one with the glorious rainbow tinsel garland dancing in the sea breeze.
Tucked away in the heart of Tyabb Village is a hidden gem that is Dear Reader Bookshop – the cutest second-hand bookshop that’s bursting with books that are just waiting for little (and big!) hands to discover.
Tucked away in the treasure trove that is the Tyabb Packing House village, The Gift Shed is your go-to spot for all things “bloke’. Whether you're shopping for your Dad, your partner or a mate, this little shop packs a serious punch!
Why wait for the ‘most magical time of the year’ to get into the festive spirit, when you can celebrate Christmas all year round at Trudi’s Place?!
Whether you’re a lover of all things chocolate, prefer the sugar rush of freeze-dried candy or are a connoisseur of American candy - you will find it here.
There’s a brand new local shop that is home to the cutest and most unique gifts!
This is SUCH a stunning and quirky shop. From the pink exterior to the bright and leafy inside - it’s a treat for your eyes.
