The “Carols in the islands” event on Saturday night, December 6, 2025 pulled in a huge crowd of families and friends.

With international and local artists lined up for the show, the location “DC Park” was already packed late in the afternoon as the excited crowd counted down to see their favourite artists perform.

While waiting for the show, a good number of stalls were also at DC Park, ranging from delicious food, snacks and drinks to stalls that had on display, beautiful handmade items and other things.

Island Sun caught up with Ebony Finau who was at the event with her family.

She said she and her family came to join the “Carols in the islands” event and they also have a food stall.

Finau said for them as a family, it’s really nice because there are also other families at the occasion and it means a lot for them to come and sell the food they prepared.

She expressed that at events like this, it is important to prepare and serve good food for people as they wait for the show to begin.

“I so happy to be here with my family and also happy to see other families coming together to join Carols in the islands”, she said.

Artists in the line-up for the show included; Solomon Islands artists, Khazin and Blad P2A, Jaro Local, Grace V, and international artists like Vanuatu’s Vanessa Quai and Maori R & B singer Myshaan.
