The spirit of Christmas has arrived in the Central Goldfields with the installation of Christmas decorations underway across the Shire.
Decorations were installed in Carisbrook and Talbot last week with decorations in Maryborough, Bealiba, Dunolly, Majorca underway this week.
Central Goldfields Shire Mayor Cr Grace La Vella said seeing the Christmas cheer roll out across the Shire was exciting.
"I think many of us are really looking forward to catching up with family and friends and enjoying some down-time over the Christmas break.
"Last year we were able to invest a little bit extra into our Christmas display – with additional decorations introduced across not only Maryborough but Bealiba, Carisbrook, Dunolly, Majorca and Talbot.
"It was certainly well received by our community so it will be wonderful to see our community enjoy it again this year.
"We encourage you to get your friends and family together, enjoy the display, and if you can, please make sure you support our local retail and hospitality businesses when doing your Christmas shipping this year"
