At the heart of the show is our sparkling, animated brass performance of The Nutcracker — packed with toy soldiers, twirling sweets, glittering snow scenes and all the iconic music you know and love. The magic continues with just a small handful of extra seasonal pieces to round off the experience — the perfect bite-sized Christmas treat.

Perfect for Families:

• A lively 45-minute performance designed with children in mind
• The Nutcracker brought to life in an immersive, whimsical brass adventure
• Just 2–3 additional festive favourites to keep little ones engaged
• A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere for all ages
• Free souvenir included with every child ticket
• Refreshments, including hot chocolate available

Wrap up warm, bring the whole family, and enjoy a magical taste of Christmas — short, sweet, and full of sparkle.
