Maribynong’s Christmas program has been announced, with a range of activities running throughout December for the whole family to enjoy.
The council’s new initiative, MARIality, is an app which brings selected murals across the city to life. Residents can download the app to their phones and point it at one of the many murals across Maribyrnong City, where augmented reality technology will help transform the artworks.
Residents can also enter the Santa and Sirens colouring competition through the app for a chance to win a personal home visit from Santa and his helpers on board a vintage fire engine. The competition closes December 7 with the winner to be announced Friday, December 10.
Footscray night market will also be back on from 3-24 December at Railway Reserve.
The market will offer cuisines from around the world each Friday night accompanied by entertainment and music that will showcase each culture.
Mayor Cr Anthony Tran said this Christmas the City of Maribyrnong will be going all out.
“There’s plenty on the festive calendar to engage and entertain including new innovative interactive activities through our very own MARIality app,” he said.
“It’s a great addition to the amazing program of activities, making the most of the many wonderful murals that enliven our city. So come and enjoy the festive season with us.”
