Magical Festive Activities and Christmas Events in Perth


By Courtenay Turner

Celebrating the festive season in WA’s sunny capital city? Don’t miss out on the most magical Christmas activities in Perth in 2024. 

This December, Perth promises big festive vibes. (Think Christmas light trails, carols, shows and festive markets bursting with handmade gifts.) There are even DIY bauble-making workshops and watercolour classes to spark yuletide wonder.

Whether you’re looking for work Xmas party ideas in Applecross or kid-friendly activities in Mount Hawthorn, there are hundreds of Christmas events Perth-wide. You just have to know where to look…

Bake Christmas classics with the kids

Handmande gingerbread house

Cake, cookies and gingerbread are classic Christmas staples in Australia. And learning how to make them is a right of passage for any kid, big or small. Fortunately, there’s a buffet of Perth Christmas events to get their tummies rumbling. (And yours.)

Get your little tykes into the kitchen with this Kids’ Christmas baking workshop, courtesy of The Cooking Professor in Mount Hawthorn. Under the guidance of an experienced chef (and child-wrangler) your little ones will learn how to make, bake, ice and decorate a variety of cute Christmas cookies. To fuel their culinary creativity, they’ll each enjoy a smoothie and some pancakes with fruit – all the energy they need to whip up a collection of sweet treats.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Christmas activity without the addition of marshmallow snowmen and reindeer, which also feature on the menu. This class is perfect for kids aged 6-12 and – good news – adult accompaniment isn’t required. Go on, make yourself a Christmas cocktail and enjoy a couple of hours of kid-free bliss! (You’re welcome.)

Hand picking up a star-shaped cookie

Know a mini masterchef who loves to bake? Take them along to this Christmas cupcake decorating class in jolly Joondalup. Suitable for kids and adults, this family-friendly activity will leave you feeling merry, bright and full of buttercream. Over 75 minutes, you’ll decorate four cupcakes with guidance from expert baker, Kelly. Get creative with coloured fondant and icing and learn how to bring your designs to life – be it a Christmas tree, snowman or sparkly star. 

Looking for Christmas activities that big kids can enjoy? Try this gingerbread-making workshop. At only $39 per participant, it’s a budget-friendly option for your end-of-year work Christmas party in Perth. Get the team together and learn how to assemble an adorable Gingerbread house in less than an hour. Personalise your creation using candy, spices and icing and make something truly magical. For teams that want to go the extra mile, a Christmas-themed tea setup is available for an additional charge. Cute!

Make a DIY Christmas wreath

After you’ve binged the latest festive Netflix films, cultivate even more cosiness at a DIY wreath-making workshop. From Coolbinia to Fremantle, there are so many classes to explore.

Appreciate native Australian botanicals? The Happy Hub Collective has you covered with their Christmas wreath workshop. Paying homage to Australia’s beautiful local flora, this festive experience is the perfect opportunity to create a timeless wreath to hang on your door. Add your own creative touches with colourful ribbons, ornaments and festive embellishments that reflect your personal style.

Callie bought tickets to The Happy Hub Collective’s DIY wreath workshop and said: “I purchased this as a thank you gift for my amazing neighbour who always helps me with my three sons. She is obsessed with Christmas and this was the perfect chance to steal her away and show her how much we appreciate her. We got to spend the most relaxing morning creating and bonding. I cannot recommend this workshop highly enough. The perfect gift of time well spent – which is the most precious gift of all!” 

If you like your decoration with a side of boho flair, this Perth Christmas activity is sure to deliver. Join the team at Knot in Love Macrame for their macrame wreath workshop and learn to master three basic knots: square, half and loop. Using your newfound skills, you’ll weave a unique wreath to adorn your home. Trust us, macrame is so addictive you’ll be brainstorming new DIY projects as soon as you finish the class.

Prefer a floral look? The Happy Hub Collective also runs a Festive Native Floral Centrepiece Workshop. Perfect for small teams or your annual Friendsmas celebration, this 2-hour creative workshop focuses on creating a stunning festive centrepiece using Australian florals and foliage. Guided by expert hands, you’ll craft a one-of-a-kind arrangement that will take centre stage on your table – perfect for Xmas lunch. As a bonus, tea and coffee are provided.

If you’re partial to paper, head to Jotterbook Flowers’ Native Paper Flower Wreath Workshop. In just one afternoon, you'll create a rustic Christmas wreath adorned with native Sturt Desert Pea and Eucalyptus flowers made from premium Italian crepe paper. Plus, you’ll get a festive wine and cheese platter to nibble on through the event. If you’re looking for Friendsmas ideas or work Christmas party activities, you can’t go past Jotterbook’s cosy craft workshop.

Whether you’re celebrating with friends, family or colleagues, learning to make a wreath is one of the best Christmas events Perth-wide. Book soon to avoid disappointment. Classes fill up fast and numbers are limited.
