Join us for the Official Lighting!

Australian Consul-General of New York, the Honorable Heather Ridout, will be officially lighting The Big Aussie Xmas Tree on December 8, 2024—and we’d love to have you join us.

We’ll have drinks for purcahse and shared nibbles, gifts and activities for kids, and Santa will be making a surprise visit as well!

Come alone, bring a friend, or invite the whole family—everyone is welcome!

The Lighting

Fun for the whole family, we’ll be lighting our tree at 5pm. Covered in green, gold, and Australian fauna, it’ll be a spectacle for sure!

Santa’s Visit

It wouldn’t be a Christmas Event without Santa! Arriving at 4pm, Santa will be available for photos and have gift for the kids present.

The Party

To compliment a beautiful tree and a lot of fun, there’ll be shared nibbles and drinks for purchase all throughout the event (for the grown-ups and the kids!)

We’d love to see you on December 8, 2024 for the inaugural lighting!
