Where to spot Santa when he comes to town

Santa will be making his way to the Yarra Ranges next week before he heads back home to get everything ready for Christmas Day. Picture: UNSPLASH.

Lilydale

Santa will be making the rounds on the back of Lilydale CFA’s firetruck on Monday 20 December.

The guy in red will be going on four different routes to cover nearly all of Lilydale in one night.

Head to the Lilydale CFA’s Facebook for the maps.

For those who miss seeing Santa on one of the routes, he will be outside the fire station from about 6.30pm to 7.30pm handing out goodie bags.

Mooroolbark

On Sunday 19 December Santa will be visiting Mooroolbark on the back of the CFA’s big red truck.

Instead of driving around the streets, Santa will be dropping by some local parks to meet the kids.

Wandana Cres Playground – 9.30am to 10.15am

Montrose

Christmas Eve in Montrose wouldn’t be the same without the sound of Santa coming on the back of the truck.

This year won’t be any different, except Santa won’t be getting off the truck for photos.

But brigade members will be handing out wrapped lollipops.

Montrose CFA will be coming to a street near you between 1pm and 7pm – just listen.
