Subscriber only KIDS ran around Hervey Bay s Seafront Oval as Christmas carols were beamed in via the big screen on Saturday night. The Festive Fraser Coast concert was held at Maryborough s Brolga Theatre, but the fun was shared in the Bay, where families brought their camping chairs and blankets to enjoy the evening. The annual carols events in both cities had to be cancelled because of COVID-19, but the region still got in the spirit of the event with a free concert. Fraser Coast Mayor George Seymour addressed those gathered, saying while it had been a difficult year, it had also been a chance for the community to slow down and remember what was important.
