The Hills of Rivermakers is getting a festive glow-up from Saturday November 15 with the riverside precinct set to transform into a festive Christmas wonderland bursting with sparkle, flavour and fun. Twinkling lights will deck every corner, the scent of gingerbread and wood-fired pizza will fill the air, and the sounds of carols, laughter and clinking glasses will set the tone for a truly merry experience.
Running from November 15 to December 28, Christmas at The Hills will be packed with festive happenings for all ages. Santa will make appearances each weekend throughout the month of December, joined by face painting on Saturdays and balloon artists on Sundays. On Saturday December 14, the celebrations reach new heights with live music and a visit from real reindeer. Families can drop by The Hills’ Bakery + Cafe to write and post letters to Santa via the on-site Christmas mailbox across the month, while Christmas Movie Nights light up the lawn every Wednesday, so be sure to pack your picnic blankets.
The pop-up Elf’s Café will transform The Hills’ roastery building and outdoor spaces into a fully immersive Christmas experience overflowing with festive magic. Expect whimsical decor, indulgent hampers and touches of Christmas cheer around every corner.
Across the precinct, festive flavours will flow – from scoops of gingerbread cookie-dough gelato and traditional Christmas lunches to the Figgy Pudding Pizza and the North Pole Angus Smash Burgers. With playgrounds, a petting zoo, the Urban Winery, The Roadhouse & Brewery, Bakery + Cafe and sprawling lawns, The Hills of Rivermakers is the perfect place to eat, play and celebrate this festive season.
