Ocean Grove Park will welcome about 3000 people for Carols in the Park with a timeslot of 7pm announced.
Get ready to see Ocean Grove, Surfside and Our Lady Star of the Sea Primary Schools performing on stage.
There will be all the carols you love, sung by leading local artists and special
performances that will surprise and delight with the region’s popular personality Mark Hyland as master of ceremonies.
With the support of Ocean Grove Connected Communities, safe LED candles will again be available at each of the entry gates for $3.
This year, gate proceeds will go towards local charity Feed Me Bellarine.
Locals are also invited to bring an unwrapped gift to put under a giant Christmas tree. The gifts will be distributed to local needy children by Cottage by the Sea.
Other attractions on the night will be the Carols Orchestra and Geelong Harmony choir.
Artistic director Jon Mamonski OAM said he expected close to 3000 people to attend the carols and that he looked forward to seeing people singing their “heart out”.
“The much-loved Carols in the Park continues to be the largest community gathering of the year, with more than 3000 people attending last year’s event,” he said.
“Santa is expected and there’s a very good chance he will bring some snow with him.”
Carols in the Park is at Ocean Grove Park on Sunday December 8. Gates open at 5pm with the official show set to begin at 7pm.
