Santa Claus is coming to town!

Santa’s little helpers have been merrily preparing for Friday’s special family festivities along The Esplanade in anticipation of his arrival in Coolum.

Activities kick off at 4.30pm with a children’s workshop, followed by Cool Harmonies community choir singing some of their diverse repertoire of world music.

Members of the Ulysses Bike Club arrive at 5.30pm to collect donations of toys and non-perishable items for their charity, Pyjama Foundation.  

If you’re buying any last minute gifts to donate to this charity, Santa’s helpers will gladly gift wrap them for you. Alternatively, donations can be dropped off to Gaye or Dave at The Shop.

Cool Harmonies then invite you to sing along with some of their favourite Christmas songs before Santa arrives to say hello to young and old. Have you been good this year?
