Enjoy Christmas Carols online this festive season

Published on 03 December 2020

Sunraysia residents can still enjoy Christmas Carol performances despite COVID-19 restrictions thanks to a partnership between Mildura Rural City Council’s Events and Projects Team and Mildura Arts Centre (MAC).        

The 30-minute pre-recorded performance will be viewable from the MAC Facebook page and will be launched at 6.30pm next Sunday 13 December and run through until Thursday 31 December.

Mildura Mayor Jason Modica said the performance would feature a host of local artists, expatriates and several special guests, all of whom will be announced in coming days.

"It would be an understatement to say this has been a very tough year, but our community has risen to the challenge and overcome each obstacle COVID-19 has thrown in our path," Cr Modica said.

"Our online Christmas Carols event is a shining example of this. Despite restrictions preventing large gatherings, our community can still enjoy one of the traditional treats of Christmas comfortably and safely from wherever they are via the MAC and Council Facebook pages, as well as Council’s YouTube channel.

"It means everyone from residents in aged care facilities through to students at schools across the municipality can sing along to our Christmas Carols event wherever and whenever they like between 13 and 31 December."
