It's that time between Christmas and New Year, when all the presents have been delivered and it's time for the North Pole's annual Jingle Bell Ball!
This year, it's up to our elves to organise the most magical event of the year - what could possibly go wrong?!
Our family friendly show is suitably for all children 1-12, with a little something for everyone. We have packed our show with more songs and silliness to keep the whole family entertained and this year we end our performance with a mini disco to celebrate the end of Christmas and the beginning of a new year!
