The children’s entertainment area includes jumping castles, face-painters, games, crafts, buskers and movies.


SPAR Carols by Candlelight with Jacaranda FM, the highlight of Gauteng’s festive calendar is coming to Johannesburg on December 8 at St Stithians College and in Pretoria on December 11 at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.

The Johannesburg event features a stellar cast of South Africa’s top artists including Connell Cruise, Craig Lucas, Paxton, Swing City, Claire Johnston, Rubber Duc, Roan Ash and the Ndlovu Youth Choir.

The Pretoria leg features Jo Black, Karen Zoid, Kurt Darren, Charlize Berg, Nadine and Nianell, Swing City and the Ndlovu Youth Choir.

Jacaranda FM presenters will be broadcasting live from both the events.

This annual event, which has become a hit with families from all over Gauteng and neighbouring provinces, is undoubtedly the best way to kick off the festive season.

Children’s entertainment area will have the little ones entertained with jumping castles, face-painters, games, crafts, buskers and movies.

Entry is free, but in spreading the love to where it is needed most, attendees are encouraged to bring a toy which will be delivered to charity organisations.
