1 December 2025: As Aussies prepare for a busy festive season, Woolworths is taking the stress out of planning by launching two distinct, curated Christmas menus designed to help hosts balance budget, quality, and time.

The new menus are built entirely around Woolworths' Own Brand products, offering customers simple, delicious and great value menus to suit a small, traditional gathering or a larger, elevated celebration. 

Festive Feasting for Six Menu - Prawns, Pav and Ham for under $100

This menu is designed for hosts who want to capture the spirit of Christmas while managing their budget.

  • Designed to feed up to six people for under $100

  • Focusing on classic Aussie favourites and great value, this $100 menu truly covers all the essential bases of a full Christmas feast. It features the essential Woolworths Half Leg Ham and a chilled Prawn Ring Platter, paired with a versatile grazing cheese platter and fresh vegetable accompaniments. The meal culminates in a delightful DIY dessert featuring the Large Pavlova Base and fresh fruit.

  • The selection guarantees generous portions, ensuring there are still leftovers to enjoy on Boxing Day.

Feeling Fancy? Easy Entertaining for Eight Menu - Under $240

For those aiming to be the host with the most time on their hands, this menu prioritises premium quality and maximum convenience.

  • Designed to impress a crowd of eight people for under $240

  • It's all about effortless indulgence with fresh flavours. Think Gold Duck Fat Potatoes and a super simple Gold Glaze & Bake Ham. Plus, it gets a little bit fancy with the Thomas Dux cheese selection and prosciutto for grazing. The feast is rounded out with a showstopping Woolworths Gingerbread Cheesecake for a truly effortless finale.

Louis Eggar, Woolworths Supermarkets Director of Fresh, said: "We understand that the holiday season brings the challenge of balancing both budget and time. Our specially curated menus aim to simplify Christmas shopping by offering high-quality, delicious products designed to meet our customers' needs.

“For those mindful of their spending, we’ve got a complete menu for around $100 that is designed to feed six people. This value-focused option still features premium fresh products and our seasonal highlights, from the Half Leg Ham to fresh strawberries. And for those who choose to spend a little more on their Christmas meal, there’s an extended entertaining menu with a few fancier suggestions.”

Both menus are now fully shoppable online, providing a ready-to-go list of ingredients.
