Known as “the nation’s favourite Christmas party”, Coca‑Cola Christmas in the Park returns to Christchurch on Saturday.

Organisers are promising a “fabulous, fun-filled night of world-class entertainment and jaw-dropping fireworks.”

Since the first concert in 1994, the show has grown to become New Zealand’s largest free annual Christmas celebration, a showcase for some of the country’s most popular performers and promising new stars, and a firm fixture on the Kiwi Christmas calendar.

Concert goers attending Coca‑Cola Christmas in the Park on Saturday 25 November at 7.30 pm are advised to plan their journey and allow plenty of time to minimise delays traveling to the concert.

Due to anticipated crowd volumes and public safety concerns as people enter and leave the event, the proposed road closures will be carried out on 25th November 2023 at:

• Armagh Street between Cranmer Square and Park Terrace 9pm – 11.30pm

• Park Terrace between Bealey Avenue and Dorset St 5pm – 11.30pm

• Park Terrace between Armagh St and Chester St West 9pm – 11.30pm

• Rolleston Avenue between Armagh St and Gloucester St 9pm – 11.30pm
