Adelaide’s 80th St John Carols by Candlelight will be returning to Elder Park/Tarntanya Wama on Saturday 14 December 2024.
Each year hundreds of families flock to Elder Park to soak up the festival like atmosphere and enjoy a FREE day out with plenty of interactive games, activities, food stalls and live entertainment. From mid afternoon and right up until the Carols by Candlelight concert begins in the evening, the event provides a wonderful opportunity to get together with your nearest and dearest, light your candles and sing along to some of your favourite Christmas songs. It’s one of the most exciting times of the year, as families get out their rugs and picnic baskets to be part of one of our city’s great traditions.
The first two artists announced for the 2024 event is the incredible Dami Im and family favourite Emma Memma!
STAY TUNED AS THE FULL PROGRAM IS ANNOUNCED OVER THE COMING WEEKS
Carols by Candlelight is Australia’s second-oldest Christmas concert, presented to Adelaide residents and television audiences since 1944 when an estimated one in 10 citizens attended the first event. The traditional Elder Park concert now attracts more than 25,000 people annually and raises much-needed funds for South Australian charitable causes.
In 2022, St John Ambulance South Australia became the custodians of Carols by Candlelight, preserving this 80-year Christmas tradition for the community for years to come.
St John Ambulance SA is a self-funded charity that has been supporting the wellbeing of South Australians for over 135 years. St John Ambulance helps tens of thousands of people across the state each year by delivering first aid at events, first aid training and products, and social inclusion programs.
