Light Up Windsor streets ahead thanks to grant!
Get set for the biggest ever Light Up Windsor Street Fair on Saturday, 30 November 2024! It’s going further than ever before down George Street, Windsor thanks to an Open Streets Program grant of $65,000 from the NSW Government.
Hawkesbury City Council has received an Open Streets Program grant to activate all of George Street from the Windsor Train Station to the Windsor Mall for placemaking activations as part of Light Up Windsor, the Hawkesbury’s premier Christmas event.
The Open Streets Program aims to inject vibrancy into our streets and help to create thriving local places that support businesses, creative sectors, and the community through events and activations.
The Hawkesbury’s festive elves are so excited that they are already hard at work planning a huge event program, which for the first time will include the activation of illuminated Christmas installations, festive chalk art and Christmas murals all the way along George Street.
Santa is so excited, he’s even sending a live reindeer all the way from the North Pole to meet visitors, as well as appearing in person with Mrs Claus, which will be a highlight of the evening.
Historic Thompson Square will be activated and 50-plus market stalls will extend along Windsor Mall, George Street and Baker Street.
