Santa dropped in, literally, on Peregian Beach last Wednesday to be greeted by a crowd of thousands who had filled the park and were waiting for him on the sand in what has become a much anticipated tradition at the long-running Christmas carol event.
Organised by Peregian Beach Business Association, Peregian Family and Friends and Peregian Beach Surf Life Saving Club the carols, now in its 58th year, the parachuting Santa is a thrilling arrival for the young and young at heart.
After the past couple of years with Covid restrictions the community of locals and visitors came out in large numbers to listen to the entertainers, pick up some Christmas presents from the artisan market, try out the kids activities and watch the laser light show which capped off the evening.
