Loxton Lights Festival

Event date: 29 November - 31 December 2025

Christmas is a magical time, full of enchantment, celebration and family. For over 30 years, the Loxton Lights Festival has been embracing the joyous festive season for locals and visitors alike.  The local community comes together to create a memorable Christmas experience for all, with spectacular Christmas light displays in large clusters of residential streets, and homes adorned with over 350 unique hand-painted Christmas scenes.

Loxton’s village-style main street, East Terrace, is a joy to behold at night from the enormous Christmas tree dazzling on the roundabout to the spectacular Light Show in the trees through the centre of town. During the day, wander the Riverland’s best shopping strip and browse the diverse range of local specialty shops with many independent, family-run small businesses providing a unique Christmas shopping experience.

Loxton is situated in the Riverland of South Australia. A 2½ hour drive east of Adelaide, Loxton is a popular destination for sheer relaxation, indulgences in food and wine, aquatic and outdoor activities, and of course our fabulous Christmas Festival.

Enjoy browsing through the website and discovering the many Christmas events associated with the Lights Festival.  We look forward to welcoming you to Loxton for one of the Riverland’s most loved family events.
