Burdekin Shire Council invites the community to celebrate the start of the Christmas season with Lights, Camera, Christmas—a special event marking the lighting of the new Christmas trees in Ayr and Home Hill.
The celebrations will be held on Sunday, 1 December from 6pm to 7.30pm at the Burdekin Theatre Forecourt in Ayr, and on Monday, 2 December 2024 from 6pm to 7.30pm at the Home Hill Comfort Stop.
This festive event offers families the chance to enjoy the lighting of the trees, soak in the holiday atmosphere, and have photos taken with Santa—absolutely free of charge. A local photographer will capture the magic, with the photos shared on the Burdekin Shire Council’s Facebook page for families to keep and cherish.
Mayor Pierina Dalle Cort expressed her excitement about the event, saying, “We are thrilled to bring the community together to celebrate the start of the Christmas season. These tree lighting events and free Santa photos provide a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the joy and togetherness of the holiday season.
“Let’s light up the Burdekin and welcome the most magical time of the year!”
Families are encouraged to come along, enjoy the festivities, and kick off the Christmas celebrations in style!
