Bairnsdale Community Christmas Parade & Santa's House

The annual Bairnsdale Community Christmas Parade & Santa's House is managed and organised by the BCCI. The event has established itself on the community of East Gippsland's calendar as an event not to be missed.


The sight of the many Christmas themed floats brings thousands of people to Main Street in Bairnsdale to celebrate the arrival of Santa at his house in the Main Street gardens, heralding the start of the Christmas shopping season. Santa greets thousands of children and hands out balloons at his house in the Main Street gardens during advertised hours, until Christmas Eve.

"May the joy, spirit and celebration of Christmas continue to be experienced by communities of East Gippsland"
