Broadwater Christmas Twilight

Southport

Unwrap the magic of the festive season by the water at the Broadwater Christmas Twilight.

The Great Lawn transforms into a shimmering seaside wonderland filled with holiday cheer. It's your ultimate one stop Christmas shop to find unique, handcrafted gifts, artisan creations and local treasures – all while supporting our amazing small business community.

Soak up the festive vibe under the twilight sky with live holiday music, mouthwatering food, roving entertainment and family friendly fun including free face painting, free messy play and free family interactive game show. There will also be a kid's magic craft activity and a jumping castle (small fee applies) and of course a visit from the one and only Santa! We haven't forgotten your four-legged friends with a Christmas photo prop area just for them.

Pack a picnic blanket, gather your favourite people and celebrate the season in true coastal style.
