Okaihau Christmas gala
Come join us at our annual Okaihau Christmas gala - Saturday 13th Dec 2025.
The event will start with a parade at 10am - the parade route starts at the Primary School turnaround, moving down Settlers Way towards the shops, turning right into Lawn st & right again into Michie st, before circling the domain & coming to a halt in the middle of the grounds - where you are welcome to have a closer look at the floats.
There will be live music by a wonderful local musician, plus lots of stalls selling food & other items.
We have our annual Christmas Tree competition.
The Fire-Engine and Thomas-the-Tank-Engine will be there for childrens' rides.
And, of course, the main attraction - SANTA!!
He has confirmed he will be able to join us for a time and we hope all those who want to will get a chance to say hi!
We look forward to seeing you all there!!
