Supporting Community Where It Matters Most: The Christmas Party Cairns 2025

The Northern Frontier Foundation is proud to have supported The Christmas Party Cairns in 2025, an event that once again brought joy and unforgettable memories to families across the Cairns region.

On Saturday 15 November 2025, the Cairns Convention Centre came alive as more than 1,200 children and their families gathered to celebrate the Christmas season. Families travelled from towns around the region, including Port Douglas, Cardwell, and the Atherton Tablelands, all coming together for a day designed to ease financial pressure and create moments of joy.

The Christmas Party is a free, invitation-only event for children from across Australia who live with disabilities or complex care needs. Each annual party brings families together for entertainment, fun, treats, and a visit from Santa! Community-led initiatives such as these lift spirits and provide relief during what can be a stressful time of year.

Powered by Community Generosity

Events like The Christmas Party Cairns are only possible through the generosity of local businesses, organisations and volunteers. The Northern Frontier Foundation proudly stands alongside the many partners who helped make the 2025 event such a success, including:

  • AVIS for providing transport
  • The Distributors Cairns for additional goodies in snack bags
  • State Emergency Service Queensland for their valuable team support

There were many others who contributed behind the scenes, and the collective effort of sponsors, volunteers and organisers ensured the day ran seamlessly.
