Australia Day Community Awards
Community Event of the Year

President, Megan Poynton & Secretary, Carolyn Bennett with Mayor, Cr Tracey Hargreaves
Ballarat Christmas Carols is an annual event and brings people together from across the Ballarat region. It provides an opportunity for the community to engage with groups such as the Country Fire Authority and groups of different ethnic backgrounds.
Ballarat Christmas Carols spreads the message of unity in the community. It provides a free event at Christmas time when things are becoming more and more expensive. It also covers all age groups and provides a festive and musical end to the year and start of the school holidays.
