It’s that time of year again!  You guessed it – Christmas is fast approaching. What better way to get into the jolly old swing of it than to enjoy a snag or two at the annual Elwood Festival, supported by Chisholm and Gamon?

Held on Sunday 1st December, this fun filled day is sure to bring the community together. With a clever variety of activities to keep the kids entertained and an appearance from Father Christmas on the cards, this year’s festival is sure to be a ripper! Make sure you highlight this event in your calendar – it features a gaggle of treats to make even the grinchiest member of your family enthusiastic.

C&G Sausage Sizzle & Balloon Fiesta

You will certainly want to arrive with an appetite as local traders will have a variety of food stalls vending drool-inducing fare - plus the annual C&G sausage sizzle. See the C&G team frying snags and onions with panache – and giving away jolly orange balloons to big and little kids alike. 

Rides and more….

If last year’s festival is anything to go by, you can look forward to jumping castles, tea-cup rides and the ubiquitous lolly giveaways. Local schools will be putting on an array of performances, there will be roving performers and professional musicians making the atmosphere extra-festive.

We suppose the only thing to do now is to wish for a sunny day– summer in Melbourne is notoriously unpredictable - but we’re sure a little rain won’t dampen the Christmas spirit.  We can’t wait to see you at the Elwood Village Festival this year. We’ll be the ones in the orange!
