 We  drove down Burwood Highway in Burwood (suburb of Melbourne, Victoria) last night expecting to see some great Christmas lights. And maybe a few Santas.

We could see the lights from a distance so easily found 378 Burwood Highway (not too far from Middleborough Rd). Each Christmas, this Burwood house has various lights up high on a garage roof and the roof of the house. I quite liked the Santa sleigh and reindeer light display on one roof.

From the sign out the front, we realised we had missed seeing Santa himself by about an hour 🙁  However, there were other Christmas elves wandering around inside and a couple of fairies even did a dance routine a bit later!

Inside their yard, there are not as many lights, decorations and Santa sleighs as we expected BUT there were  so many Santas on display! Along one wall were man-sized Santas (and a couple of other characters in Christmas garb). Along the second area was an incredible display of Santas – on trains, in parachutes, sitting, standing, with presents or without, with sleighs and reindeer (didn’t notice any with boomers unfortunately) and even some in snow globes for the white Christmas feel. You could spend ages there looking at each one in detail…

If you’re in Melbourne, I’d definitely say visit Burwood for a Santa display like no other! 4 Santas for this spot 🙂
