We are excited to have Callan James back performing at this years Carols in Harcourt Park! Come enjoy Callan's vocals, join in the carols and enjoy food and more entertainment on Saturday 13th December from 5pm.

Callan James is a soulful Māori-Irish singer from Upper Hutt whose magnetic energy earned him a four-chair turn on The Voice Australia Season 14 this YEAR. Picking a spice girl as a coach, being on Team Melanie C, he powered through the Blinds, Battles and Knockouts before exiting in the showdowns — already proving himself as a fierce talent on an international stage. He has also been on Popstars NZ and 5 Minutes of Fame Season 1 as a Semi-Finalist. This Homegrown Man has done so much, and yet still has so much more to give with his upbeat personality and powerhouse vocals.
