Celebrate Christmas at Highlands Shopping Centre

This festive season, Highlands Shopping Centre invites the community to come together and celebrate the magic of Christmas close to home.

The centre is beautifully decorated, and this year’s Santa set-up is one of our most charming yet — come along to take your individual or group photo!

Santa will be visiting five times throughout December, bringing joy to children and families across Craigieburn. Two of his visits will include free face painting, adding an extra touch of colour and excitement for little ones. On another special day, kids can enjoy Christmas muffin decorating, featuring muffins from the local favourite, The Flying Loaf Bakery.

Highlands Shopping Centre is more than a place to shop — it’s a welcoming, family-friendly hub for the community. From fresh food and a local butcher to cafés, casual dining, a bakery, and bubble tea, there’s something for everyone. Visitors can also explore gift and homeware stores, beauty and health services, hair salons, pharmacies, and phone repairs. Other essentials like a variety store, liquor, tobacco and lottery services, postal services, and a fitness centre are all conveniently under one roof, making Highlands a complete local shopping destination.

This Christmas, we invite you to visit, explore and celebrate with us. Join in the festive fun, support our local retailers, and make the most of everything Highlands has to offer.
