Greater Shepparton City Council will start installing festive decorations throughout Greater Shepparton on Monday 18 November 2019.
Residents can expect Christmas decorations at Aquamoves, Queen’s Gardens, Monash Park, Victoria Park Lake and the Maude Street Mall in Shepparton, as well as more in Murchison, Tatura and Mooroopna.
Some of this year’s decorations will include a giant Santa, large PEACE sign, large LED lights, light post decorations, bin decals, town entry flags, banners and of course a giant Christmas tree. The community will also see the return of the Aluminium Christmas Tree on the grassy knoll at Victoria Park Lake.
Santa’s mail box will be positioned in the Maude Street Mall where stamped letters can be posted to Santa all the way to the North Pole. The Mall will also be home to a free gift wrapping station.
This will all kick off in the Mall on 30 November, with Santa making a special stop in the Mall between 10am-2pm to officially launch the festive season in our region with plenty of Christmas activities.
The Christmas decorations will be taken down on 2 January 2020.
For further information contact Kristie Welch, Festive Decorations Officer.
