Tis the season to be jolly, or usually sweaty when it comes to Christmas in Brissy. Whether you’re full of dread about seeing distant relatives, or enjoy the one month where it’s kinda socially acceptable to behave like a child, it’s December and that means it’s the Silly Season.
Christmas Putt Putt | Victoria Park
Get your festive spirit swinging at Victoria Park’s festive-themed mini golf course.

Victoria Park’s festive golf pop-up will stay until January 2023, so you’ve got some time to celebrate.
