Ballarat comes alive this Christmas as festive decorations take over Sturt Street, Bridge Mall and the Ballarat Information Centre.

Wander through the city and discover a trail of enchanting displays, from the glowing Archway of Stars to the shimmering Waterloo Stars.

Snap a photo with Rudolph and his reindeer friends, step into Santas boots with fun illuminated cut outs and capture your perfect Christmas snap in the Giant LED Bauble.

Don't forget to explore Ballarat's new Christmas displays located in the Bridge Mall. This year, the Bridge Mall will feature a 5m illuminated Christmas Tree, an awesome photo opportunity for family and friends on the Bauble Bench and a 4 metre long Merry Christmas Ballarat Sign.
