Community members are encouraged to block the evening of Saturday 30 November out in their calendars for the opening night of our Christmas in Geelong program.
We are partnering with Denis Walter OAM to present the illumination of our Floating Christmas Tree with Santa alongside the annual Carols by the Bay event, with a star-studded line-up of performers.
This year's free community celebration will mark the 10th anniversary of Geelong's famous Floating Christmas Tree in Corio Bay.
We will announce timings, performers and other exciting details, as well as the full Christmas in Geelong program, in November.
