Kaleidoscope of European Carols, this Sunday, 11 December at 7pm

Christmas is getting closer and to help you get into the spirit of Christmas the European Forum is organising the 20th (!!) Kaleidoscope of European Carols this Sunday, 11 December at 7pm at the Botanic Gardens Sound Shell.


The Sweden-New Zealand Association will, as always, get up on stage and sing a few well known Swedish Christmas Carols - come and join in! If you don't want to enter the stage with us, please come and cheer us on!

There is no entry fee to this event, however, as always, the European Forum will be raising money for the New Zealand Red Cross by selling European Christmas baking, cold drinks, coffee, tea and candles.

If you can contribute any Christmas baking that would be much appreciated! Please make sure to wrap any baking in individual packages suitable for selling and labelled with the ingredients. Please bring the baking with you on the night and give it to one of the volunteers standing behind the baking stall at the entrance to the Sound Shell by 6.45pm. The European Forum is happy to reimburse your expenses, this will be arranged on the night.

The European Forum still need volunteers to help behind the cake stall and put up flags before the event. They also need to borrow a Christmas tree for the stage on the night, with lights and tinsel if possible. Let us know if you or someone you know can help with any of this.

If the weather is good then it will be a special evening, candlelit and filled with the Christmas spirit. If, on the other hand, the weather is wet or dubious, please listen to the Cancellations after the 8am news on Radio 2ZB.

Bring Glögg, coffee or tea, Bring a blanket to sit on, Bring a jersey (it can get chilly when the sun goes down), Bring family and friends, Bring your Christmas Spirit - See you there!
