People are encouraged to mark December 15 on their calendars for the City of Whittlesea’s Carols by Candlelight, which will include a special visit from Santa Claus.
This year’s event is jam-packed with activities and performances, starring the sounds of the Diamond Valley Brass Band and the Community Carols Choir that is composed of 60 members.
Family members can bring their picnic blankets and singing voices to enjoy family activities and a twilight market for those last-minute Christmas gift needs.
Chair administrator Lydia Wilson said it was a special time for residents to gather in community spirit.
“Christmas is a special time for many in our community. Coming together for festivities like this not only unites family and friends but also strengthens community connections and spirit,” she said.
The event will include many family activities, a twilight market and singing.
The free event is on December 15, from 6pm to 9pm, at City of Whittlesea’s Civic Centre Lawns, located 25 Ferres Boulevard, at South Morang.
