Come and celebrate Christmas in the park and enjoy a multicultural picnic at Washbourn Gardens in Richmond on Saturday 16 December.
This will be a great community Christmas celebration with an international twist added to celebrate Migrants Day.
We will kick off at 6pm with the multicultural picnic, family-friendly craft activities and an open mic for musical performances. Then at 8pm, the carol signing will begin!
The Nelson Brass Band, Motueka Highland Pipe Band, youth band Salisbury Road, and Take a Chance Singers will perform favourite Christmas songs, and there will be special guests pianist Louis Lucas Perry and Samantha Baxter from Musical Theatre New Zealand.
Everyone is invited to join in and sing along, booklets with song lyrics will be provided to the audience.
People are also invited to perform a festive song in their mother language during the open mic time from 6.15 – 7.15pm.
The rain date for this event is Sunday 17 December.
There will be Santa Claus, food trucks, kids activities and more. Please remember to bring a candle and your own reusable plates, containers and cups.
