Fine weather is set to grace Rotorua on Friday for the 21st annual Carols by Candlelight.
The Rotorua East Lions Club is presenting the event again in conjunction with major sponsors, Rotorua Energy Charitable Trust, NZME and Andy's Marquee and Party Hire.
"It's much the same format as years before, but we have some different entertainers, they're all local of course," Dave Elliot from Rotorua East Lions said.
The night of festive music and fun will kick off at 7pm under the trees in Kuirau Park.
The Hits 97.5 local host Paul Hickey will front the entertainment.
