With lots of popular carols for everyone to join in singing, the 2014 Magnetic Island Carols By Candelight will be held on Thursday 11 December from 7.00pm at Alma Bay and led by Graeme MacCourt and a group of singers from the Magnetic Island Churches while the children from the Magnetic Island State School will present a Nativity Pageant during the evening. The Townsville Brolga Brass Band will accompany the singing. The programme will conclude at approximately 8pm. Entry to the Carols by Candlelight is free. Donations received on the evening will be sent to Medicins Sans Frontiers for their work in Africa in relation to the Ebola epidemic.
