Description
Make this Christmas truly unforgettable with a magical screening of Raymond Briggs' beloved family favourite, The Snowman, brought to life with a live orchestral soundtrack and the voices of our Cathedral choristers.
Following two sell-out performances in 2024, Portsmouth Cathedral is delighted to welcome back the Solent Symphony Orchestra for this very special festive event. The orchestra will perform the much-loved score live, while the Cathedral's own choristers add the beauty of their voices, creating truly magical sound. With the combination of this timeless animation, wonderful live music, and the unique atmosphere of the Cathedral itself, the evening promises to capture the spirit of Christmas for audiences of all ages. It is an opportunity to relive a cherished story, enjoy a treasured tradition, and make lasting memories together.
We invite you to gather the whole family, wrap up in your cosiest pyjamas or onesies if you wish, and step into the warmth and magic of the Cathedral this festive season. A bar will be open throughout the evening, offering a wide selection of drinks including wines, spirits, beers, and soft options, along with a choice of snacks to enjoy during the screening.
Whether you are joining us with little ones experiencing The Snowman for the first time, or returning to enjoy it as part of your family tradition, this promises to be a heart-warming celebration filled with comfort, nostalgia, and joy.
