Residents and visitors of Kangaroo Valley will join for a night of festivities while supporting local retailers for their annual Kangaroo Valley Village Christmas Market on Friday, December 10.
The aim of this year's market is to come together and support businesses after bushfires and COVID-19 lockdowns.
"The aim is to support our local businesses after the hard times of the past two years, but also to bring the community together to celebrate our resilience," said event organiser and treasurer of the Kangaroo Valley Chamber of Tourism and Commerce, Natalie Harker.
"We're really excited to welcome everyone - both locals and visitors - back to Kangaroo Valley."

A plastic wise town, Kangaroo Valley have decked out the village with environmentally-friendly decorations.
They have avoided plastic single use decorations and the village has been decorated with handmade, organic materials from local florist Amanda Breeze.
Amanda's floristry business Valley Moss is one of the many local businesses that have lost much of their income due to the wedding and tourism industry coming to a standstill during lockdowns.
The Kangaroo Valley Village Christmas Market will be from 5 to 8pm Friday, December 10.
All visitors to the market stalls and non-essential retail must be double vaccinated and use COVID safe check in.
