Lord Mayor’s Lighting of the Christmas Tree
Join Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner as the city's spectacular 22-metre Christmas tree lights up for the first time, officially kicking off the Christmas in Brisbane festivities.
Gather family and friends for a free evening of festive entertainment, including appearances from Santa and his merry helpers, live performances by acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter Jem Cassar-Daley, and plenty of Christmas cheer.
The illuminated Christmas tree will shine throughout the season, creating one of Brisbane's most photographed festive landmarks and a must-visit Christmas attraction in Brisbane City.
Whether you're starting your festive celebrations or capturing the perfect Christmas photo, this much-loved annual tradition is the perfect way to welcome the season.
