Christmas Events in the City of Melbourne
The trick to enjoying the holidays: Never let little hands go idle. Unless you want pinkie fingers in fruitcakes and a toppled Christmas tree. Get a load of what's happening in the City this Christmas. We know you want to.

Where to give at Christmas
The holiday season is known to most of Victoria (Australia) as a time of celebration and reuniting with family and friends. But for those most in need it can be the most difficult time of year. We believe in instilling a sense of community service in our children from early on in their lives. What better way to instil a spirit of giving in your family during a special time of year than helping out those who need it most. With these organisations you can give a little joy and create a sense of Christmas spirit (we've also included the Australian Defense Force because they need our support and they're away from their families at Christmas).
So you want to combine play, conversation, coffee and good food all in one go? With a cubbyhouse and courtyard full of toys, it's no wonder this place is the talk of the town.
Ask us how we entertain and please all three kids at once - this place screams at us all the time! A skate park, a playground with views and the beach and a cafe with take away coffee - winning!
Let's take a moment to appreciate a park that suits everyone and we mean everyone! Where can you find a beautiful nature inspired playground upgrade, a full size basketball/netball court and an off-leash dog park all in the one spot? Julier Reserve in Port Melbourne are what park dreams are made of!
