Kawana Carols by the Beach
Celebrate the festive season this December 2026 at Kawana Carols by the Beach, hosted at the Kawana Surf Club in Buddina. Sunshine Coast families and kids can spread out a picnic blanket along the sand to sing along to holiday carols, soak up the coastal community spirit, and enjoy seaside festivities together.
Kawana Carols by the Beach 2026
Kawana Carols by the Beach is back, with a fresh new look, the same community spirit and some very big plans for this year. It’s time to get Christmas by the beach into the calendar!
Expect an afternoon rolling into an evening of Christmas carols, festive cheer and time together by the beach. Bring a picnic blanket, gather the family and friends, and come ready to settle in and sing along. Enthusiasm is encouraged, and singing ability remains optional.
Run by Kawana SLSC Nippers, this event brings the community together, with local volunteers, businesses and families all playing a part. The organisers are putting plenty of work into making this year the biggest yet, and the entertainment, activities and all the details needed to plan the afternoon will be shared over the coming weeks, along with the generous sponsors helping make it happen.
