Illuminated by the soft glow of candles, Sale Botanic Gardens transforms for the much-anticipated Carols by Candlelight. Gather your family and friends for an enchanting evening filled with the sounds of classic holiday carols.

MCed by Ms Christina Kyriakou, local bands and soloists such as Mick Harrington, Stratford Singers, Glenn and Andrew Crawford, Izzie Wicks, Ashton and Indi Hicks, Will Jones, Georgia Shell, Sale City Band and The Mafeking Hillbillies will lead us in song. Sale Baptist Church will provide a live Nativity scene, and In-Step Dance School will also perform.

There will be plenty of festive activities, with a jumping castle, a Lions Club BBQ, coffee and sweet makers on offer, and of course - a visit from Santa!

This year, the Newborn Intensive Care Foundation supporting Central Gippsland Hospital Maternity Unit are the supported charity. Check out their Baubles for Babies at their virtual Christmas tree and click on the donate heart at the top right to select your bauble.

Battery operated candles will be available for sale, and carol book provided.

This cherished tradition is the perfect way to welcome the holiday cheer. Bring your own blanket or chair, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
