A crowd of smiling people in winter wear enjoying the falling snow at Greytown Festival of Christmas.

Greytown is getting ready for one of the country’s happiest mid-winter celebrations. The Wairarapa Festival of Christmas is an extravaganza blending northern hemisphere charm with Kiwi flair. The month of festivities includes lights, laughter, and fun for all ages. This year’s theme, ‘Christmas Carnival’, applies to events including a Light Up Tractor Parade, Illumination Night Walk, and Kids Circus School Programme. There are also street parties, house tours, live music, and fireworks.

The main street in Greytown provides the hub for many activities across the four weeks. It will offer twinkling lights, themed shopfronts, delicious street food, and live entertainment. The mid-winter Christmas magic will be enhanced by the promise of a special snow delivery, too. Get ready to have a cracker of a celebration.
