The Koorie Heritage Trust are bringing back their one-of-a-kind festive celebration, Koorie Krismas, with a fun-filled free event this weekend in the heart of the city.
It's a jam-packed Christmas 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 the Djirri Djirri dancers, musicians Pirritu Duo, DJ PGZ and lots more.
If you’re needing to get your Chrissy shopping ticked off, Koorie Krismas has you covered too. 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 crafts and art pieces that would look perfect under anyone’s tree this Christmas. Or you can make your own handmade gift, with workshops on wreath-making with Indigenous flora, customised Krismas cards and badge making.
It's all happening on Saturday, December 14 at Federation Square, from 10am to 3pm. Find out more on the website.
