The Western Downs is set to come alive with the festive spirit this holiday season, with a range of community events and activities on offer for the whole family.
Western Downs Regional Council is partnering with community groups right across the region to bring some festive cheer to the local community, with community carols, street parties, and Christmas tree light ups just some of the events on offer. Following its popularity, Council will again host a rural property entrance Christmas decoration competition this year.
Western Downs Regional Council Mayor Paul McVeigh said it was important for families to come together, share in the festivities and be a part of the region’s inclusive and connected community.
“This is the time of year when we get the opportunity to reflect on our achievements and spend quality time with our family and friends, and in 2021 we have an incredible line up of Christmas activities planned across the region,” Cr McVeigh said.
“Council is hosting the Chinchilla Community Christmas Carols in conjunction with the Chinchilla Lions Christmas Light Show light-up event, with plenty of entertainment planned. We’re also hosting the Dalby Christmas Tree Light Up event at Thomas Jack Park, which is set to be an exciting event for people of all ages.
