A festive feast, complete with a visit from the big man in red was again the highlight as Nimbin celebrated Christmas.
The popular annual community Christmas lunch, hosted by the Nimbin Neighbourhood and Information Centre in the town hall, was held on Friday 19th December, with a wonderful turnout of over 200 community members enjoying a hearty meal before it was Santa’s time to shine.
Arriving on a fire truck and flanked by elves, he showered the waiting crowd of enthusiastic children with lollies before hitting the town hall stage to distribute the highly anticipated presents to about 50 children.
It was great to see so many smiling faces with young, old and every age in between taking the opportunity to enjoy the festivities.
This year’s event was supported by many local businesses making for some spectacular raffle prizes and a very impressive spread.
