Georges River Council’s annual Magic of Christmas event returns to Carss Park bigger and better than ever before.
 
The Georges River community can expect an evening of festive fun, spectacular food and drinks and a jam-packed line-up from an array of talented performers and local groups.
 
Georges River Council Mayor Sam Elmir said, “Magic of Christmas is a favourite among locals celebrating the festive season and marks the start of Council’s summer events program.”
 
“More importantly, this event is free and offers a fantastic program of entertainment, activities and fireworks for the community to enjoy with their family and friends.”
 
The star-studded line-up of entertainment include popular kids’ music groups The Beanies, SplashDance Christmas Show and The Smurfs; singer Chris Sebastian and Play School’s Emma Palmer as emcee.
 
This year’s roving entertainment features the LED Hula Hoop duo, Christmas Giant Bubbles and the Santa and Elf Minder to continue the singing and dancing throughout the evening.
 
Foodies will also find something to tickle their tastebuds with food trucks offering mouth-watering items – everything from delicious burgers, pasta and desserts are on the menu.
 
Later in the evening, a special guest from the North Pole will make an appearance and fireworks will light up the night sky.
 
“I hear a very special guest in a red suit will make a stop at Carss Park on the night, so I encourage everyone to keep an eye out for him,” said Mayor Elmir.
 
“Please join me in the countdown to the spectacular firework show at 9pm as we close out the magical evening.”
