Toowoomba's Christmas Wonderland

Queens Park glows with a magical free Christmas lights display.

Each December, Queens Park transforms into a glittering Christmas lights display — a beloved community tradition running since 2003. Families stroll the illuminated gardens nightly in the lead-up to Christmas, soaking up the festive glow.

Best of all, it's free, run with strong community and charity support. A lovely, low-key way to get into the holiday spirit.
