Winter is coming to Pacific Epping.

The Cooper Street shopping centre will be transformed into at weekend as part of its annual community fair.

The fun-filled event will feature a synthetic ice-skating rink, hearty cooking demonstrations and free cups of hot chocolate.

Children will enjoy a life-sized snow globe filled with lifelike snow, while the centre will be decorated with giant snowflakes.

A kids craft zone will be open throughout the weekend so kids can indulge their artistic sides while creating winter snow crowns.

A beauty bar will offer pampering sessions including mini-manicure, glam eye applications and hair styling.

Students from Northside Christian College and St Catherine’s and Plenty Parklands primary schools will take to the community stage across the two days, providing plenty of entertainment.

Dance groups Dance Machine, Electric Dance Studio and Step In Time Studio of Dance will perform on the Sunday.

There will also be scouting activities run by Epping North Scouts and a pop-up art gallery created by Whittlesea U3A.

The community fair is on June 24-25.
