Something for everyone at the nation’s favourite free Christmas party!

There’ll be dancers dancing, drummers drumming, and pipers piping at this year’s Coca‑Cola Christmas in the Park - and together with some of Aotearoa’s biggest entertainers and hottest new stars, a 10-piece big band and 6-member all-star vocal group, it promises to be another cracker of a Christmas show.

“Once again we’ve got a massive, talent packed show featuring spectacular singers, dancers and musicians from all over New Zealand,” says creative director Dixon Nacey. Award winning 11-year-old country pop princess Cleo Fitzgerald, powerhouse performer Dillon Rhodes, and emerging new singing stars Samoan-born Lou ‘Ana and electro-pop sensation PRINS are just some of the artists set to ignite the big stage, and this year Dixon is excited to welcome guest performers from the acclaimed Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo* who, he says “will add their own unique flavour to the show.”

The popular free Christmas event will be held in Christchurch on 29 November and in Auckland on 13 December. Concert goers can expect high-energy, arena style shows complete with spectacular sound and lighting, the Coke Food Fest village, and the crowd favourite all-stars-on-stage fireworks finale.

Since 1994, Coca‑Cola NZ has proudly supported New Zealand communities by raising essential funds for local charities through Coca‑Cola Christmas in the Park. This year they’re honoured to partner with Sea Cleaners and the Styx Living Laboratory Trust, two organisations making a real difference in protecting New Zealand’s waterways and ecosystems. 

Ends.
