This December, it will be snowing once again in Sydney’s Domain, as Destination Canada partners with Woolworths Carols in the Domain for the third consecutive year.
With 50,000 people gathering to celebrate the spirit of Christmas, and millions more tuning in from home, Australians will be invited to imagine their own white Christmas in Canada, the quintessential winter wonderland. Whether it’s the thrill of ice skating on frozen lakes framed by snow-covered peaks, witnessing the mesmerising Northern Lights, skiing, or embracing other snowy adventures like dogsledding, fat biking, and snowshoeing, Canada offers winter escapes unlike any other. Add to this the lively winter festivals, and it’s not surprising that Canada is known as the home of winter.
