And a mid-winter festival with lights, decorations and special events that emulate a Northern Hemisphere Christmas is perfect this year. Greytown’s first ever Festival of Christmas is a show of support for the town’s retail and hospitality businesses, as well as creating something wonderful for the Wellington region, a chance to celebrate togetherness. It might be the middle of winter, but the Christmas vibe will be very much alive with the town decorated in Christmas trim and fairy lights. Putting some sparkle into the school holidays this winter. See the light projection show and decorated windows.
Check out the special accommodation packages and restaurant menus are on offer, in-store promotions , and entertainment and street events for the weekends. Wrap up and make the most of the festive fun just an hour from Wellington.

Consider using the school holidays to get Upcycling with the smaller members of your household - or use the next rainy day to drag out the paint and your creativity!
