This morning, Santa Claus made a special trip down from the North Pole to Climb to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge with the Sydney Children’s Choir and Starlight Children’s Foundation families.

Santa parked his sleigh, donned his harness and ascended the famous steel arches to the top of the Bridge, followed by 15 singers from the Sydney Children’s Choir. At the summit, Santa and his merry chorus surprised three Starlight Foundation children and their families with a festive performance.

From 134 metres above the sparkling harbour, surrounded by stunning vistas of Sydney City to the Blue Mountains, Santa and the choir lifted up their voices to sing classic Christmas carols like Jingle BellsO Come, All Ye Faithful and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

It was a magical morning for the special guests from Starlight Children’s Foundation, who were unaware of the Christmas festivities until they reached the summit celebration. BridgeClimb’s Climb Leader elves captured the ultimate photos with Santa, set against the backdrop of the Opera House and Sydney Harbour.

“We are so lucky to be able to create special moments like these for our Climbers,” said Chris Zumwalt, CEO of BridgeClimb Sydney. “BridgeClimb has a history of connecting and inspiring people, and today is one of those wonderful stories that will leave lasting memories for all involved.”

Rumour has it that Santa loved his BridgeClimb experience so much, he’ll be returning on Christmas Day to spread more holiday cheer on the Harbour Bridge. Climbs will depart during the day, twilight and night on the 25th of December. A Climb is also a great Christmas gift idea for your loved ones – find out more about BridgeClimb Gift Certificates here.
