Get into the festive spirit 

By Sheree Hoddinett  

 

It’s that time of year again! Christmas is fast approaching and with the distant ringing of sleigh bells comes the mix of festive events to celebrate the season. If you’re looking for something to do with or without the kids, here’s a few ideas and events to get you in the Christmas spirit. 

 

A seaside Christmas December 1-24 Bribie Island Seaside Museum is creating some Christmas cheer with festive joy for one and all. They will be sharing stories from the past and offering new, fun and engaging Christmas activities every day they are open from December 1-24. Check out the cheeky antics of their Christmas elf, participate in a Christmas-themed scavenger hunt or get creative at the Christmas craft table. It’s definitely the place to be this festive season. Bribie Island Seaside Museum (1 South Esplanade, Bongaree) is open from Wednesday to Friday, 10am – 4pm, Saturday and Sunday 10am-3pm.  

Annual Bribie Island Christmas Lights Boat Parade

Bright and sparkly boats will light up the canals with plenty of viewing spots on offer.  

 

Beachmere Xmas Bazaar & Community Carols  

Saturday December 7 from 4pm - Clayton Park, Moreton Terrace, Beachmere. 

Celebrate the festive season with activities and entertainment for the whole family. Check out the markets or bring a rug and settle in with family and friends. Shellacken will pump out the music and Good Company will lead the carols. 

 

Caboolture Christmas Carols  

Saturday December 1, 4pm-8pm - Centenary Lakes Park, Morayfield Road, Caboolture. 

With twilight markets, food trucks and Santa’s Village with Christmas activities for the kids, there’s plenty happening in Centenary Lakes Park. Everyone can join in the festive fun while enjoying an amazing line-up of local artists and community groups performing all your favourite Christmas carols. Along with the Caboolture Community Choir, Citipointe Church will be performing again this year.  

 

“For the past 13 years Citipointe Church have had the privilege of performing at the Caboolture Community Carols and it's the highlight of our year,” Citipointe’s Mel Politanski said. “Christmas is such a special time for us and we love to share in the joy and hope of the season with our community.  

“Being able to serve in this way brings us immense joy and we are grateful to be part of this cherished celebration each year. We look forward to many more years of celebrating Christmas in our community!” 

 

Sandstone Point Christmas Carnival 

Sunday December 15, 1-8pm, Sandstone Point Hotel. 

Find the perfect gift at the markets, enjoy delicious treats from the food stalls, settle in for some live music, tackle the kids rides and wait for the biggest guest of all – Santa and his reindeer will be stopping by all the way from the North Pole! There will be Christmas crafts, a cookie decorating station and the chance to be crowned as wearing the ugliest sweater, so make sure you drag it out of the back of the cupboard. There will be Christmas carols and fireworks as well.
