The Rotary Club of Williamtown's annual Christmas carol event will start at 6.30pm on Friday, December 5.
John Donahoo, from the organising committee for Carols at Ferodale Oval, said as Medowie was getting bigger so too was the event.
"We get several thousand people each year."
Carols at Ferodale Oval was started in 2003 and largely driven by the late Pastor Wayne Mordue from the Medowie Baptist Church.
He organised each event up until 2011. He died in 2012.
"He worked tirelessly to ensure that Medowie could have its own homegrown annual Christmas carols that is now probably the biggest community event on the Medowie social calendar," Mr Donahoo said.
This year's carols will feature students from Wirreanda and Medowie public schools who will sing for spectators. For extra entertainment, a laser light show will be projected onto a large screen.
Santa Claus will arrive and with his helpers, hand out lollies to the children.
The cost to enter is $2 an adult and free for under 18 year olds.
