Magna steps into Christmas with West End spectacular

With the Christmas party season well and truly underway, Magna is stepping into the festive spirit as the venue prepares to welcome a unique candle-lit performance of some of Britain’s best loved Christmas songs.

Christmas by Candlelight brings together some of the best loved songs of Christmas in a unique show, which has been performing to sell-out audiences across the UK. The atmospheric event, which will see the stage lit with candles will feature a unique combination of feel-good festive hits and promises to leave visitors wishing it could be Christmas every day.

The show sees four stars of the West End take visitors on a journey through the decades, with the performance featuring popular festive hits from the 1940s right through to the present day, including hits made famous by Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Brenda Lee, Elvis and many more, delivering dazzling performances that celebrate the most wonderful time of the year.

With Christmas classics including ‘White Christmas’, Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!’ and ‘Santa Baby’, as well as an evening packed with plenty of mistletoe and wine, Concerts by Candlelight aims to deliver a unique way to kick off the Christmas celebrations in style.

Daniel Wood, Director, Concerts by Candlelight, said:

“Christmas by Candlelight is a unique, uplifting concert that promises to deliver a holly jolly Christmas for all the family. Since the beginning of December, the popular show has been performing to sell-out audiences across the UK.

It’s the first time that we’ve performed our show in South Yorkshire and we’re looking forward to bringing it to the atmospheric setting of Magna, which promises to deliver an unforgettable evening of entertainment, which I hope will leave the audience quite literally rocking around the Christmas tree.”

Stuart Lee, Operations Director, Magna, said:

“We’re looking forward to welcoming the Christmas by Candlelight show to Magna, in what will be a truly unique way for people across South Yorkshire to enter into the festive spirit. With tickets already selling fast, we are looking forward to a memorable evening that is certain to set the audience up nicely for a wonderful Christmastime ahead.

Throughout December, Magna is set to welcome more than 5,000 guests for our popular Eat, Bump and Groove Christmas party nights, which sold out in record time this year, and we’re already looking forward to what looks to be a busy 2024 for our events programme.”

Inside Magna, work is continuing as part of a £2.4 million upgrade to the popular science and adventure centre. Following the completion and re-opening of its revamped Earth and Air Pavilions in 2023, the attraction is currently closed to visitors as work gets underway in upgrading the centre’s Water pavilion. Events are unaffected by the work currently underway at the attraction, and the science centre will re-open to visitors and schools on 6^th January 2024.”
