Please forgive me for posting about Christmas in October, but the celebrations are getting earlier every year!

I haven't experienced Christmas in Grey Lynn yet, and I'd love to know if there's anything special going on in the neighbourhood. I know some communities have Xmas markets or street parties.

What Christmas events/celebrations/fairs/markets/concerts/festivals/fundraisers are you all aware of? Anything that gets you in the spirit of Christmas, both in and around Grey Lynn.

Thanks :)
