For many this annual event is the pinnacle of Sydney's caroling calendar, this year, the event's 30th anniversary, is set to be its biggest ever. Some very high profile stars have performed at Carols in the Domain in past years, from stalwarts like Hugh Jackman, Marsha Hines and Jimmy Barnes to younger performers like Guy Sebastian. This year, a host of stars will get together to celebrate this important birthday, spread Christmas cheer, and help to raise money for charity.

The fun doesn't end at carols though, the event is a always a great day out for the family, and this year will feature appearances from Santa and his elves, wishes in the sky, and a free showbag. Earlier in the day there will also be a Kids Carnival.

Once you've had your fill of fun, spread out your picnic rug and enjoy the concert.
