Coghlan headlines Hume carols

Carols by Candlelight is returning to Craigieburn’s Anzac Park, bringing a sleighful of exciting special guests including celebrity MC Gorghi Coghlan.

Set for Saturday, December 7, this year the event will welcome star of the Australian stage and TV personality Gorgi Coghlan as the guest MC, notable to fans as host of The Project on channel 10 and her role as ‘Monster’ on The Masked Singer.

Experienced in belting out Christmas ballads, Coghlan’s work on stage includes four appearances at Channel 9’s Christmas Eve Carols by Candlelight, as well as featuring on ‘The Spirit of Christmas’ albums.

Joining Coghlan to deliver a repertoire of favourite carols will be a full program of Hume-based musicians, local school choirs, and special performances – all to be announced in the coming weeks.

And, of course, Santa will be there to meet and greet the audience.

There will also be Christmas stalls, arts and crafts, face painting, food trucks, a petting zoo, and a spectacular fireworks display to end the night.

Pre-entertainment activities begin at 5pm and stage performances run from 7–9.25pm with a traditional fireworks finale.

Hume’s Carols by Candlelight is a free, all-ages event, and while tickets are not required, you can register interest and save the date on its Eventbrite page.
