The Koorie Heritage Trust is bringing back its one-of-a-kind Christmas celebration with a fun-filled free event in the heart of the city.
Koorie Krismas is a jam-packed party with live music, DJs and dance performances, as well as a special, magical appearance from Koorie Klaus. There's a huge line-up of First Nations performers, including musicians Charlie Needs Braces, The Deans of Soul, The Violet Summers, Isabelle Skye, Sascha Astrid, Barry Gilson and lots more.
If you’re needing to get your Chrissy shopping ticked off, Koorie Krismas has you covered. There'll be a wide array of Indigenous-owned businesses selling their creations, including Melbourne faves like Clothing the Gaps and Haus of Dizzy, as well as art and crafts that would look perfect under anyone’s tree.
Or you can make your own handmade gift, with workshops on wreath-making with Indigenous flora, customised cards and paper tree decorations. Plus, keep your eyes peeled for a sighting of Koorie Klaus himself, with one of his snazzy elves on hand with a polaroid camera to capture a pic with your family.
It's all happening on Saturday, December 13 at Fed Square, from 10am to 3pm. Find out more via the website.
