Shepparton's CBD will come to life with Christmas spirit on Saturday 3 December with the first of the CBD Fun activities kicking off with a market.
The annual Rotary Market will be held in the Maude Street Mall with craft stores, a live jazz band, food, free kids entertainment and street performers as well as a jumping castle and a Christmas-themed dunk tank.
Santa’s Workshop will be open in Harris Scarfe for photographs with Santa and friendly volunteers will be on location to wrap your Christmas goodies at the charity gift-wrapping.
The Market will be just the beginning of the Christmas fun in the CBD thanks to Greater Shepparton City Council and Shepparton Show Me. Plenty of activities will be on offer throughout December right up to Christmas and Boxing Day.
Visit Council’s Events page or Shepparton Show Me on Facebook for more details.
