The Botanic Gardens will come alive with Christmas music on Friday, December 14.

Come along and sing along to all your favourite Christmas songs at this free family event. Bring a picnic blanket or chair and kick back, relax and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Your welcome to BYO food and drinks or food vendors will be open from 5.30pm with a range of hot food, snacks and drinks.

This year’s amazing local talent taking to the stage is Anette Worthington, Kathleen Campbell and students from Theatre Arts Mackay Dance Excellence.

Got loose change, bring it along. The Friends of the Gardens will have glow products and raffle tickets for sale throughout the night to support future developments in the Gardens.

Christmas in the Gardens is an alcohol-free event and is free to attend.
