The Ballarat Christmas Tree is a real cedar tree in the beautiful Sturt Street Gardens.

The tree gets dressed with Christmas decorations each year to bring the festive spirit into Ballarat's CBD.

This year, four new Christmas baubles will form part of these decorations, each designed and painted by local Ballarat artist Kathy Holowko.

You can find the Cedar Christmas Tree in the Sturt Street Garden block opposite Myer.

Ballarat invites you to visit this festive season and enjoy all the beautiful and unique Christmas decorations on your walk through the city centre.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.

©️ 2024 Visit Ballarat. This initiative is funded by the City of Ballarat and Tourism Midwest Victoria.
