This year’s Magic of Christmas at Carss Park saw a record crowd of 22,000 attend the magical event on Saturday 2 December.
 
The free event featured an outstanding program with musician Chris Sebastian headlining the show, performances by family favourites such as The Beanies, Smurfs and SplashDance, and local entertainment groups taking over the stage.
 
Georges River Council Mayor Sam Elmir said, “It was fantastic to see record crowds singing and dancing at our favourite festive event this year.”
 
“Thank you to our major sponsor, Club Central Hurstville, sponsor Estia Health Blakehurst, vendors, performers, Council staff and most importantly our community for making this year’s Magic of Christmas event a success,” said Mayor Elmir.
