Get into the festive spirit at Deck the Halls, the Gold Coast's signature Christmas event held at the iconic Home of the Arts (HOTA). Anticipated for a Saturday in early December, this free celebration is perfect for the entire family. The day is packed with holiday cheer, beginning with hands-on kids' activities, face-painting, and opportunities to meet festive characters. As the sun sets, spread out a picnic blanket on the lawn and enjoy a spectacular stage show featuring talented local musicians and singers performing all your favourite Christmas carols and holiday hits. With a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere and a program designed to delight all ages, Deck the Halls is the perfect way to officially kick off the Christmas season on the Gold Coast. Be sure to keep an eye out for the official date announcement later in the year.
