The Cabonne village will host its first twilight Christmas market, with Santa stopping in on a horse-drawn cart.
The markets will kick off the silly season with live music, Christmas shopping, a tree lighting ceremony, light-up window displays, as well as Christmassy food and drink.
Organiser Verity Middleton said the committee hope to bring a European style Christmas market to the streets of Cudal.
"We love Chistmas," she said. "You won't be able to escape Christmas at this market."
In addition to a three-piece band performing carols throughout the night, there'll be a children's section with jumping castles and face paint to keep the little ones entertained.
Mrs Middleton said parents could leave the kids to their own devises while they enjoyed the bar, which will be run by Pioneer Brewing.
Around 20 outdoor stalls and the same inside the Cabonne Food and Wine Cultural Centre will sell goods produced in the Central West.
Mrs Middleton said they hoped the inaugural market would help put Cudal on the tourism map.
The market will run from 5-9:30pm.
Children will have the chance to meet Santa from 5.15-6.15pm and 7-8pm.
