Big Christmas Appeal

Give thousands of children and local families the gift of live theatre, music and cinema.

Every year, the Big Christmas Appeal helps us to give away thousands of free and discounted tickets to children, families and other groups from our community who are experiencing hardship and disadvantage.

This can be a life-changing experience and can only happen with your support.

This Christmas, your donation will help even more in 2026.
