Yarra Glen Carols by Candlelight 2023 will be a spectacle of Christmas and celebration!

The event will begin at 7pm on the 16 December in McKenzie Reserve, Yarra Glen.

With performances from Jaanz International Singing Academy, local singers and more, there will be plenty of family friendly engagement and quite a few fun surprises throughout the night.

This year the Carols By Candlelight Committee are featuring a Christmas Hat Competition where participants are invited to make their own hat.

To help people get creative the Carols by Candlelight Committee will be hosting free workshops on the 4th, 9th and 11th of December in two locations.

The first location is Yarra Glen Living and Learning Centre on December 4 and 11 from 4 to 6pm.

The second location is the Yarra Glen Memorial Hall on December 9 from 1 to 3pm.

These workshops are sponsored by the Yarra Glen Chamber of Commerce.

Everyone is encouraged to wear a Christmas Hat to the Carols. Those who have made their own hat have the opportunity to win a prize.

This year, unlike other years, attendees are encouraged to utilise local traders or to bring a picnic of their own as there will not be any food vans on site.

The committee will be providing a free sausage sizzle with a limited supply of sausages in bread cooking up on two BBQ’s.

If you are a regular at the Yarra Glen Christmas Carols make sure you pop the 16th of December on your calendar.

If you have never been to the Yarra Glen Carols before, make sure you make the effort to go, you will be glad you did!
