Christmas In July and Market is coming to Johannesburg to present a delightful three-day outdoor event featuring a stunning Garden of Lights, a vibrant market, artificial snow flakes, amusement rides, Picnic. This festive celebration aims to spread joy and recreate the enchanting atmosphere of Christmas.
The concept of Christmas in July originated in a girls’ camp in the United States, fueled by creativity and a love for the holiday. In Europe and Australia, this occasion is also tied to the seasonal weather, with Europeans yearning for the coolness of December and Australians linking their July winter to the chilly Christmases of the Northern Hemisphere.
Gates will open at 2 PM for picnicking, Christmas shopping, family activities, and amusement rides.
The magical Christmas lights will illuminate the garden at 7 PM and will remain on until 10 PM when the event concludes.
The Christmas in July & Market offers an interactive lighting experience, guiding visitors through a garden trail adorned with state-of-the-art lanterns, iron, and air sculptures, all set to a backdrop of festive music.
The tour features a variety of large and medium-scale light displays, some of which allow visitors to interact with the lights and sounds. This event is a perfect opportunity for family outings and Christmas gift shopping.
Attendees will encounter ten unique segments of Christmas lights designed to engage the whole family, providing chances for selfies, participation in various activities, and instant photo opportunities with Santa on his chair. It’s an ideal setting for Christmas shoppers, kids’ parties, and family outings.
