Sunday 22 December 2024 | 12:00 PM

It’s time for Broadbeach Mall to transform into a magical gingerbread village to celebrate the most wonderful time of year!

• 12pm to 4pm: Free festive workshops (bookings required)
• 5:30pm to 8:30pm: Free Santa meet & greet and selfies (no bookings required)

The area will host 3 workshops, Santa's Post Office, The Oasis Treasure Hunt and a chance to talk to Santa himself!

Festive workshops

Pre-bookings are sold out. Come along and we will do our best to fit you into a workshop where possible.

• Gingerbread cookie decorating
• Christmas craft
• Storytime theatre

Bookings are essential for the festive workshops. One booking will register children for all workshops and have a one-hour duration. Please arrive at your booked session 5 minutes before, or your tickets will be released.

For weary caregivers there’ll be a covered area located next to Oasis Coffee for you to recharge while the children enjoy the Christmas in Broadbeach festivities.

The Oasis Treasure Hunt

Adding to the festive fun, join The Oasis Treasure Hunt with clues around every corner! See Gingerbread Village staff for details. No bookings required. Limited spaces available.

Santa meet & greet

Each evening from 5:30pm to 8:30pm Santa will be hanging out in the Gingerbread Village with his elves, ready to hear your wish lists and ready for his selfie with you! No bookings required.

Why not make a day or night of it by indulging in some retail therapy and grabbing a bite to eat with the family?
