Carols on Country by Candlelight at Yagan Square

Experience a special evening of Noongar language brought to life through Carols on Country by Candlelight at Yagan Square this December. The event will be a rich cultural experience – taking attendees on a journey to explore the beautiful Noongar language reimagined through popular Christmas carols. Experience performances by local school choirs, Indigenous artists, and classical musicians, all coming together to create an unforgettable night of music and community. Embrace the opportunity to take part in a unique communal experience—learning language and singing in Noongar to experience carols in a new way. The atmosphere will be alive with the spirit of discovery, as voices and cultures come together under the evening sky. Receive your own beautifully designed songbook, complete with phonetics and translations, to guide your experience. Take part in a powerful fire ceremony that honours loved ones and celebrates the spirit of togetherness. Explore local artistry and discover festive keepsakes at the vibrant Indigenous Makers Market. Carols on Country by Candlelight will feature performances by: Marri Grove Primary in conjunction with Debrah Skelton; North Street String Quartet; Della Mob; and 'Noongar' Santa (Derek Nannup). DevelopmentWA is proud to present this free cultural experience in partnership with TourismWA. This event is free and suitable for all ages.
