Get ready to shop, explore, and sleigh the festive season! From 12–23 December, Balonne Shire Council is rolling out the 12 Days of Christmas – Buy Balonne Bonanza — a fun, Shire-wide campaign encouraging everyone to support local businesses across our seven towns.

Each day is inspired by the 12 Days of Christmas carol, with themed gift ideas showcasing everything from handmade treasures and homewares to outdoor adventures, sweet treats, and last-minute goodies for the “whoops-I-forgot-someone” crowd. It’s the perfect excuse to explore the region and pick up something a little special.

Win Big When You Shop Local

Make a purchase of $10 or more in at least three different towns between 12–23 December and you’ll go into the draw to win Buy Balonne Gift Cards:

• 1st Prize: $400
• 2nd Prize: $200
• 3rd Prize: $100

Simply email your receipts and contact details to council@balonne.qld.gov.au by 5pm, 23 December. Winners will be announced on Christmas Eve.

Spread the Cheer

Whether you’re ticking off your gift list, treating yourself (we support that), or discovering new businesses along the way, every local purchase helps strengthen our towns and support the people who make our region shine.

This Christmas, shop local, explore the Shire, and join the Buy Balonne Bonanza — your wallet, your community, and Santa will approve.
