It’s the most sparkly time of the year!
Let’s spread some Christmas cheer across the Shire — grab the family, untangle those lights, and decorate your home, station, or business for everyone to enjoy.
There are prizes for the best house, station and business in Birdsville and Bedourie.
Birdsville: Best House, Best Station and Best Business
Bedourie: Best House, Best Station and Best Business
Each winner will receive a $150 pack of solar Christmas lights — ready to make next year’s display even brighter!
