Community Christmas Day Lunch
Every Christmas Day, Armidale Uniting Church welcomes the wider community to a free Christmas lunch in the Youth Centre. This much-loved tradition brings people of all ages and backgrounds together to enjoy a festive meal, friendship and the spirit of Christmas.
Christmas Day | 25 December | Armidale Uniting Church Youth Centre
For more than 30 years, Armidale Uniting Church has hosted a free Community Christmas Day Lunch, bringing people together to celebrate Christmas through friendship, generosity and shared hospitality.
The lunch is open to everyone in the Armidale community, whether you're spending Christmas alone, looking for company, experiencing difficult circumstances or simply wanting to share the day with others.
Thanks to the generosity of volunteers, local businesses and community supporters, guests can enjoy a traditional Christmas meal in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Everyone is Welcome
People of all ages and backgrounds are warmly invited. Come on your own, bring a friend, your family or a neighbour.
The Christmas Day Lunch is about much more than food. It's an opportunity to make new friends, strengthen community connections and celebrate the spirit of Christmas together.
