The day will also start at the new time of 1pm, making it a fantastic family day out. Families can settle in, grab a spot and enjoy an afternoon of show rides, face painting, food stalls and pre carols onstage entertainment featuring Wasamba – Freo’s Carnival Drummers and the Mighty Marvel Essence of Christmas Show followed by autographs and photos with Spiderman, Ironman and Mrs Clause.

When the sun goes down and the candles are lit, the stage will be illuminated with a carols spectacular hosted by Channel Nine’s Louise Momber and Michael Thompson and headlined by top selling Australian artist, Anthony Callea. Other special guests will include Chris and Courtney Murphy, Robbie Anderson (The Voice Kids), the Variety Youth Choir and a host of other WA talent. The evening will finish with a bang – a magnificent fireworks display over the Swan River.

Variety WA CEO, Michael Pailthorpe says, “We are thrilled to have performances from a wide-range of Australian talent, but I am most looking forward to seeing the kids singing along and enjoying a real family event”.

“Christmas is such a special time that brings families together and we are so excited to be able to partner with our generous sponsors to make this a free event for the first time in its 72 year history. This will allow all WA families the opportunity to enjoy this iconic Perth Christmas tradition, all whilst raising funds to help empower WA kids who are sick, disadvantaged or have special needs to live, laugh and learn“ Mr Pailthorpe said.

The 2016 IGA Carols by Candlelight for Variety is presented by IGA and sponsored by The City of Perth, Lotterywest, Act Belong Commit, Kleenheat, Splash City, Nine Perth, The Sunday Times/Perth Now and Nova 93.7.
