Carols at Kingswood Oval | City of Mitcham

EDITOR’S NOTE:

It is with heavy hearts that the City of Mitcham has made the difficult decision to cancel Carols at Kingswood Oval planned for this Saturday 9 December 2023 due to forecast heavy rain and strong winds.  We are so disappointed that we can’t bring you this wonderful Christmas celebration, but your safety is important to us.  Thank you to the many performers, volunteers and community groups who have already contributed many hours in the lead-up to the day, and to our sponsors Flinders University, Wallis Cinemas Mitcham, Ted Turner Signs and Regis Aged Care for your support.  We look forward to returning bigger and brighter than ever next year.

Carols at Kingswood Oval festivities kick off with kid’s activities, craft stalls and roving entertainers and a Christmas Market. Let the little ones marvel at the bubble man, get their faces painted, join the silent disco or learn a circus skill.

Take along a rug or chairs and enjoy a BYO picnic or purchase dinner from various food vans. City of Mitcham’s Libraries team will share Christmas stories from the Storytime tent. There will be a chill-out zone for anyone seeking a quiet space.

At 7pm, the stage will come alive with dazzling performances by talented local schools including St Joseph’s School, Kingswood, St Bernadette’s Primary School, Mitcham Girls High, Mercedes College, and St Therese Primary School, featuring dance, song and a spectacular percussion crew. Be captivated by the Nativity Scene enactment that truly captures the spirit of the season.

Grab your program for the night’s events, or sing along to your favourite carols using the words available on the City of Mitcham’s website. To add a warm glow to the night, candles will be available for donation, supporting the Mitcham Churches Schools Ministry Group and their vital programs in local schools.

Performances will be shown on a large LED screen, ensuring wherever you are seated on the oval you will be able to enjoy the show.

They want you to sing along, clap your hands and spread the joy of the season with the performers. And don’t miss the grand finale – the arrival of Father Christmas, spreading his magic to end the night on a high note.
