Mayoral Christmas Carols to usher in the festive season

Celebrate the start of the festive season with family, friends, and the wider community at the 2026 Mayoral Christmas Carols.

The much-loved community celebration will bring people together for an evening of Christmas carols, family entertainment and special guest performances.

Hosted again by Lockyer Valley Regional Council, the event is free to attend and will bring the joy of Christmas to life through song, dance and connection.

Lockyer Valley Regional Council Mayor, Cr Tanya Milligan said the carols were a wonderful way to unite the community at the start of the holiday season.

“We will once again host the event at the Gatton Shire Hall on Saturday 28 November, in partnership with the Lockyer Valley Ministers Association,” Mayor Milligan said.

“The Mayoral Christmas Carols are something I look forward to every year and are a much-loved community tradition.

“This special event is all about bringing people together to celebrate the joy of the season, share time with loved ones and create beautiful memories.

“We hope to see people from across the region join us for a memorable night of music, celebration and Christmas spirit at the Lockyer Valley Mayoral Christmas Carols.”

Kick off the festive season in style with a mix of traditional carols and fun Christmas songs performed by the Nathan Walmsley Band. Food and beverages will be available for purchase on the night, with the night beginning at 5.30pm and the stage program commencing at 6.30pm.

An Auslan Interpreter will be present on the night. Youngsters will also have a chance to enter the Christmas Carnival Colouring Competition - and write their letter to Santa before the show commences, with a designated children’s craft area in the foyer set aside for such special Christmas work!
