Festival runs 27 JUNE — 26 JULY 2025

It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

While the rest of the country hunkers down, Greytown lights up with joy, laughter, and a touch of magic. The Festival of Christmas is a month-long mid-winter celebration filled with festive food, cosy nights, and old-fashioned fun.

At The White Swan, we’re turning up the cheer with roaring fires, twinkling lights, and a calendar full of winter delights.

Whether you’re here for a show, a mid-week escape, or just a mulled wine by the fire — The White Swan is where winter memories are made.

Sip. Stargaze. Time Travel. Join us for an unforgettable evening of stars, stories, and stellar cocktails.

Your journey begins at 5:30pm at The White Swan with a Greytown Distilling Co. gin cocktail and delicious canapés. Then, step into the cosmos with Star Safari’s Hari and Sam – an astrobiologist and astrophysicist duo – as they guide you through a breathtaking exploration of space and time.

Peer through state-of-the-art telescopes and discover shimmering star clusters, distant galaxies, and twin stars like Alpha Centauri. You'll even enjoy exclusive access to the enchanting Wishing Well Cluster — the perfect place to make a wish (or three).

All from the comfort of a private suite, cocktail in hand. If the skies don’t play ball, don’t worry - alternative arrangements will be made.
