Christmas celebrations in my town.

Nothing signals the annual Christmas parade like the sound of the pipe band. The City of Launceston RSL Pipes and Drums lead the 2016 George Town Christmas parade.

Braving the chilly and wet conditions, children expectantly await the arrival of Santa

Santa’s arrival heralds the end to another Christmas parade and signals the start of Carols by Candlelight.

As the sun fades in an apricot hue it’s almost time for another show…

The sky darkens and the light lights begin to twinkle.

Adults and children alike delight in the drive to look at the Christmas lights.

Light displays twinkle in unexpected places, lighting up gardens with cheery delight.

You never know when Santa will pop up. Will it be on a roof, on a lawn or even in a doorway?

This light display on the road to Low Head is a favourite with many passers-by.
