Christmas lights season has arrived

Here's where (and how) to find 'em!

November 29, 2024

We love to bang on about going to the beach as things get warmer, but it’s hard to get excited when there are fires raging around parts of Jurien Bay and Cervantes. Massive shoutout the fireys getting it done up there, and hopeful that everyone gets through unscathed and a cool change comes sooner rather than later - head to emergency.wa.gov.au for the latest.

EAT & DRINK

When it comes to breaky and lunch in Margaret River, options are aplenty. From bakeries that have grown into institutions, to bustling cafés and small, boutique coffee haunts, there’s plenty to consider. But one relatively new addition is the Lunch Shack…

THE LATEST FROM PERTH IS OK!
WEEKEND WALK

Serpentine Falls + the newly reopened Tavern combo

Following a six year closure, the 120-year-old Serpentine Falls Tavern softly reopened at the start of this month. It’s just a few minutes’ from the super popular Serpentine Falls trail, where you can catch its last trickle of the season - if you hurry!

‘TIS THE SEASON

The holiday season is upon us, and Synergy is back with the Synergy Xmas Lights Trail, a much-loved WA tradition that brings joy, connection, and holiday cheer across the state.

SEE YOU AT…

The FAC’s annual Bazaar (now in its 45th year!) really sets the bar for what you can come to expect from a market. Perth’s premium makers come out in full force, with bespoke homewares, jewellery, clothing, and more – all in the surrounds of the centre’s grounds.

SPONSORED

This holiday season if you’re looking for a unique gift that gives back to the community at the same time then we have a fantastic option for you!

AFTER WORK DRINKS

Happy Hour at The Breakwater

It’s bloody hot, so we’re headed straight for the coast to cool down at The Breakwater. From 5-6pm you can score $8 pints of beer or wine/bubbly, or a refreshing Spiced Peach Cocktail for $12.

EXPLORE

Whether you’re looking for a little inspo to start building your Xmas Lights Trail Map or just wanting to end 2024 on a bright note, there are loads of places around Perth and beyond featuring fun, festive Christmas lights displays for the whole family.
