Christmas was celebrated right across Noosa Shire this week with events including festivals, carol singing, Christmas-styled flotillas and one even saw Santa parachuting from the sky.
Christian churches held masses and celebrations to mark the birth of their saviour Jesus Christ.
Wet weather last week caused a couple of events rescheduled.
Among them was the annual Carol Cruise on Noosa River presented by Reed & Co Estate Agents.
Residents and visitors lined the foreshore as the Noosa Ferry, MV Miss Tewantin cruised the river delivering the sounds of Christmas songs from the Oriana Choir, AV Partners and Sunshine Coast Youth Choir.
Peregian Beach held their 60th annual Christmas carols event on Sunday.
A huge crowd gathered in the park and on the beach to watch Santa’s dramatic arrival and join in the Christmas carols and festivities that followed.
At Noosa Waters the annual Christmas flotilla spread joy to local residents and visitors.
