“Christmas on the Coast is the perfect opportunity to celebrate the festive season on Redlands Coast and it is all the more special because it is a showcase of the incredible talent we have in our community,” Cr Williams said.
The Pacific Belles will perform at Christmas on the Coast.
“The stage program really does include something for everyone, with the entertainment kicking off from 5pm each night with a Christmas pantomime performed by ROCKIT Productions.
“This will be followed by a mix of performances including Vocal Manoeuvres, Leah Lever, The Pacific Belles, Faith Kayrooz, Redland Coast Ukes, Dakota Striplin and Adam Lopez, to name a few.
“We are also excited to welcome back swing/jazz sensation Craig Martin, who will be performing with his Swing Band each night.
“The lighting of the city’s Christmas Tree will take place about 6.45pm each day, and each evening will end with a family Christmas movie from 7.30pm.”
