27th Nov 2018 2:09 PM
THE Lockyer Valley community came together on Saturday to kick off the festive season at the 2018 Mayoral Christmas Carols at the Gatton Shire Hall.
A strong crowd came together for the evening and got into the Christmas spirit, singing, dancing and laughing together.
More than 600 hand-made Christmas stars were also handed out at the carols night.
School and church choirs opened up the evening with Christmas favourites, before multi-award winning singer-songwriter Brendon Walmsley took to the stage and had the whole hall singing along.
Lockyer Valley Regional Mayor Tanya Milligan gave a short speech, encouraging the community to come together at this time of year and to remember the true meaning of Christmas.
