Matt Dworakowski | DeGroup

“We had an excellent experience with Christmas Display Solutions and highly recommend them to anyone requiring decorations.The customer relationship manager Monique Mete was great to deal with, as were all members of their team – reliable, prompt, and friendly.
The design was beautiful, far better than the others we considered, and the price was reduced to be the most competitive. The installation and removal was conducted professionally and on time. CDS also offer a storage service, which has saved us a lot of trouble. We can’t fault the products and services delivered by Christmas Display Solutions. We give them a 10/10.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you tailor Christmas display concepts to specific centre demographics?

Our design team develops creative concepts based on your centre’s unique demographics, branding, and architectural elements. Whether you are a premium fashion destination requiring high-end bespoke decor or a family-centric suburban hub looking for interactive Santa’s workshop experiences, we ensure the display resonates with your specific customer base to drive engagement and foot traffic.

Can we hire Christmas decorations, or is it only available for purchase?

We offer a flexible Hire-to-Buy program and a comprehensive hire service. This allows shopping centres to refresh their look annually without the large capital expenditure of purchasing new assets. For centres looking to build their own collection over time, our lease-to-own options provide a budget-friendly way to acquire high-quality, commercial-grade displays.

How does Christmas Display Solutions manage installations without disrupting retail trading?

We specialise in seamless, out-of-hours installations. Our CM3 accredited teams work overnight or during low-occupancy windows to ensure that rigging, electrical work, and assembly are completed safely and silently. This ensures that when your retailers open for the morning trade, the centre is transformed with zero disruption to the customer experience or store operations.

What options do you provide for Instagrammable or interactive photo moments?

We design destination displays specifically intended for social media engagement. From walk-through baubles and giant LED stars to interactive Santa sets, our displays are engineered to be photo-ready moments that encourage organic social sharing, increasing your centre’s digital reach and driving physical visits.

Do you offer maintenance and storage for our centre's Christmas assets?

Yes. We provide a full decoration refurbishment and storage service. After the festive season, our team dismantles, cleans, and services your decorations before storing them in our climate-controlled facilities. This extends the lifespan of your investment and removes the logistical headache of onsite storage for centre management.

How early should shopping centres start planning Christmas decorations?

We recommend shopping centres begin planning Christmas displays early in the year, ideally between February and May, to secure the best product availability, installation scheduling and design outcomes. Early planning allows sufficient time for concept development, budgeting, approvals and custom fabrication, particularly for centres requiring hanging decorations, large feature displays, Santa sets or multi-zone installations.
