Get ready to celebrate all things festive – Carols on the Course is back!

A family-favourite Christmas event, the Carols are on Leonay Golf Course on Saturday 10th December. The event features a line-up of local entertainment, showground rides, sideshow games, food trucks, face painting, and a spectacular fireworks show – and let’s not forget their guest of honour… a visit from the man in red himself!

Carols on the Course is free to attend, with proceeds from the night donated to ‘Our Community Cares’, a local charity that assists the aged and needy in the Penrith and Nepean area and aims to improve their quality of life. ‘Our

Community Cares’ delivers much needed community support such as providing food to feed the homeless, equipment to outpatient services of Nepean to increase patient comfort and well-being, and support to local aged care residents.

Andrew Gardner, CEO of Emu Sports Club said, “Carols on the Course is not only a fantastic community event to get in the spirit of the season, but also a chance to work together to aid the less fortunate in our community”.

“We are very proud of what we have achieved for the community in previous years and hoping to raise a significant amount of funds towards community aid in 2023”.

This year’s event will be the first time Carols on the Course has featured showground rides, testament to the growing popularity of the event. “The Carols has always been a celebration of the season, and its popularity has shown us how much it is valued by the community. The event has grown to allow the addition of showground rides, which I think will be highly popular with kids young and old,” said Mr Gardner.

Ride wristbands will be sold on the night for $20 each and will allow unlimited rides for the duration of the event, with proceeds from wristband sales donated to ‘Our Community Cares’.

Arrivals for the event are welcomed from 4:30pm, with festivities from 5:30pm.
