Residents in Port Moresby will be treated to a feast of Christmas carols performed by various local artists on Saturday, December 17 at Murray Barracks Oval.
The 2016 National Capital District (NCD) Carols by Candlelight is the time when city residents come together with their families to enjoy and singalong to their favourite carol.
Artists performing on the night are Bomana string band, POM Vintage, Erima Seventh Day Adventist Youth Choir, Mereani Masani and favourites Jokema.
Residents are invited to join NCD Governor Powes Parkop to ‘walk for peace’ to light the streets with love and peace before assembling at Murray Barracks.
