Cairns Events Let's Do This

Bring your rug, picnic blanket and your best singing voice to one of the biggest annual community events in Cairns! Carols by Candlelight attracts thousands of residents and visitors, for a feast of Christmas cheer, featuring carols performed by vocal groups, dance schools and soloists, culminating with a fireworks finale.

The evening doubles as the major fundraiser for the Mayor's Christmas Cheer Appeal. Proceeds from the sale of merchandise go towards the distribution of food hampers to around 750 local families and seniors, who might otherwise go without on Christmas Day.
