The ultimate musical Christmas cracker, our ever-popular festive concert of hits is back with an overflowing bundle of musical treats including Jingle Bells, Winter Wonderland and Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, all wrapped up with a sprinkling of magic and sparkle. You just can’t beat a bit of Cliff Richard, Bing Crosby or Slade!

This year our host is singer/actor Ben Forster, who has played the lead roles in musicals including Jesus Christ Superstar, The Phantom of the Opera, The Rocky Horror Show and Evita, to sing a selection of Broadway and West End hits.

With plenty of opportunities to join in with the fun and frolics, this concert will once again have you raising the roof and dancing in the aisles.
