Rotary Club of Bendigo Carols by Candlelight
The Rotary Club of Bendigo, Vic, has been hosting its Carols by Candlelight evening since 1970.
The program is presented annually in Rosalind Park, Bendigo, with the exception of a few years when it was transferred to other sites due to the City of Greater Bendigo carrying out infrastructure works within the park, or rain, which means the outdoor event is relocated to Exhibition Hall at the Prince of Wales Showgrounds.
The club predominately presents the program as a community service for the citizens of Bendigo. Any small profits from the evening are allocated to a nominated Bendigo community or charity organisation, which is decided on a year-to-year basis.

With fantastic live entertainment and your favourite carols to sing along to, food and drinks available to purchase and a visit from the big man himself – Santa – it’s the perfect way to kick off your Christmas celebrations!
Entry is by gold coin donation, with candles issued on entry. Attendees bring their own chairs and blankets.
The 2024 Rotary Club of Bendigo Carols by Candlelight will be held in Rosalind Park, Bendigo, on December 22, 6pm – 10:30pm.
