From festive streets to local shops, there’s something for everyone.

Once Upon a Christmas’s primary artisan market. Come find that unique gift you’ve been looking for, enjoy snow taffy and hot chocolate, and warm up by a fire.

#2 Santa's Workshop

Perth Museum

Enjoy the talents of Dr. Kaboom, write a letter to Santa, decorate delicious cookies and cupcakes, and meet Santa and Mrs. Claus.

#3 - Snowflake Station

For the first time, Once Upon a Christmas is expanding the artisan market to include vendors at Crystal Palace. Take some time to shop before roasting a S’More from Embers over the wood fire.
