Thank you Mackay!

Can you believe 2025 has come and gone? What a year it's been full of challenges and triumphs, to say the least!

As we reflect on the year, we want to take a moment to offer a resounding Thank You to everyone who has stood by us, new and old. It has been another trying year for us all, and your continued support means the world.

But more importantly, thank you from all the invited guests and their families that attended the Mackay Showgrounds on Saturday the 22nd of November.

We had the pleasure of welcoming over 1,200 special little guests from all over the Mackay region from as far north as Bowen, south to Koumala and inland to Capella, Middlemount and all the points in between as well as a few families from Rockhampton to join us for the 2025 Christmas Party Mackay.

Since the event, we have received countless messages from parents overwhelmed by the generosity of the community. Their words of gratitude are a powerful reminder of the impact your support has made. You truly made a difference in the lives of these families, and for that we are deeply thankful.

Highlights from the day can be viewed below and on our Facebook page.

This event is made possible through the generosity of local businesses and organisations. A sincere Thank You to our amazing sponsors; dedicated volunteers; the incredible team at Mackay Showgrounds; CKC Haulage for the smooth delivery of our toys; AVIS for providing transport for our team; SES for your valuable team and Domino’s for the freshly cooked pizza.

There are so many others who contributed to the success of this event, and we simply could not do this without you. Please visit our social media pages to see our full list of acknowledgements and shout-out thanks

Congratulations to everyone who partnered with us in 2025 to give these families a Christmas to remember.

Kind Regards,
The Christmas Party Mackay
