Brisbane Showgrounds General Manager of Venue Sales and Marketing Jago Coyle said it was great to see so much festive cheer at the Brisbane Showgrounds.

“We love this time of year when we host many Christmas markets and parties throughout November and December,” Mr Coyle said.

“We will then round out the celebrations with Wildlands Festival on New Year’s Eve, which is expecting almost 30,000 people.”

The King St Christmas Markets will take place in King Street this Friday from 4-8pm.
