The City of Sydney is spreading free festive cheer all over the place with Christmas concerts in Pyrmont (Nov 30), Surry Hills (Dec 1), Rosebery (Dec 7), Rushcutters Bay (Dec 8), Glebe (Dec 14) and Alexandria (Dec 15). A range of groups and performers will put on a spectacular show, and you can also expect free craft activities, games and a whole heap of food trucks and pop-ups from some of Sydney's favourite eateries. Santa will be rolling (well, riding) into all of the venues, and $5 from photos with him will go to the Sydney Children's Hospital Foundation. You can find out more here.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and that means time for some good old-fashioned carolling. To help you decide where to go, we've located star-studded line-ups crooning contemporary tunes for 'Santa Baby', classical choirs sending chills down spines with 'The First Noel', and wholesome community gatherings where the whole family can do the 'Jinglebell Rock'.
