Get involved and become a festive find in the City Centre and Braddon.
Join the Christmas City campaign to encourage Canberrans to spend more time in the City Centre and Braddon—shopping, dining, enjoying entertainment, and socialising.
This year, the campaign is all about your business, with a focus on showcasing you during the festive period. Our main goal is to make the City Centre and Braddon the top destination for the Christmas holiday season.
Get involved today! Have your products featured in the gift guide, or submit your Christmas offer, festive menu, event, or experience.
Ready to join the campaign?
There are multiple ways your business can get involved - from submitting your product to sharing a special Cracking Christmas Offer, event or experience.
Gift Guide
The interactive Gift Guide is an online platform designed to curate submissions of potential gifts - both products and services - from businesses like yours to be more easily searched and discovered!
Cracking Offers
Building on last year's Cracking Offers, if you have a thoughtfully tailored offer for a unique and memorable experience, day and night – we want to help promote it! Every offer will be live and promoted from 1 December to 31 December.
Events
If you're planning a tailored event for the festive season, we'd love to feature it. Every event will be showcased on our online platform, launching 10 November. Don't miss this opportunity to get your event in front of eager holiday shoppers and make this Christmas season a success!
