Jingle all the way to the Maranoa Christmas Street Party!
McDowall Street, Roma will come alive with the spirit of Christmas on Thursday, 7 December as Council kicks off the festive season with the Maranoa Christmas Street Party.
Now an iconic event on the local calendar, festivities will take place from 5.00pm until 8.30pm with lots of food, fun and festive entertainment on offer, including the official lighting of the Christmas Tree lights.
As you wander through the main street of Roma, Mayor Tyson Golder said there will be something for everyone at this year’s Council Christmas Street Party.
“With roller skating elves and the Grinch, local performances and displays, it will be a night not to be missed,” Cr Golder said.
“Stores in the Roma CBD will remain open plus a great variety of market stalls will be on offer to help with all your gift shopping needs."
“Keep your eye out for Santa also, as he will make his way from the North Pole to Roma offering free Santa photos.”
