With so much happening throughout the festive period we have collated some ideas, along with some fabulous competitions, to take the stress out of choosing some super cool, fun, festive trips out. Be sure to check out all the listings on our news & events page.

ELF The Musical at The Brighton Centre.

ELF, the hit Hollywood blockbuster movie has been supersized into a live arena spectacular with a massive stage featuring amazing film backdrops on a huge LED screen plus a mobile stage that travels the auditorium, so everyone gets a close-up view of the action.

The presentation features Santa’s flying sleigh, audience snowball fight, indoor snowstorm, a giant candy cane journey from the North Pole, aerial cirque stars and giant tv screens so you don’t miss any of the spectacle.

The story is hilariously recreated by a large cast of performers into the biggest live Christmas themed show in the UK. The festive spectacular will feature West End star Steven Serlin stepping into the big floppy shoes of Will Ferrell to play Buddy the Elf.
