Britain’s first Christmas concert of the 2020’s will be held 11 months early on Monday 27th Jan at 6.30pm.

The Creative Arts students will wow audiences with acting, dancing, Christmas music and Festive work, complete with mince pies & mulled wine to finish.

The concert was cancelled due to so many students falling ill to a pre-Christmas flu virus - so the Academy wants to launch it again in the first big event of the decade.

Head of Creative Arts Laura Whiteoak said: “We are so excited to be hosting the first Christmas concert of the decade. We are incredibly proud of the pieces our students have produced and know our audience would want the opportunity to enjoy the high standard of their work by fending of the January blues by fully embracing the Christmas spirit with us!

“In a new addition to this year's concert, our Art and Photography students will be available with a specially made backdrop for students and families to have a photo taken for a 2020 family Christmas card. With only 329 shopping days left until Christmas 2020 I am sure many families will want to take advantage of this opportunity!”

Audience members are encouraged to bring their festive spirit and the school will have a special prize available for the most festive attire, so dig through Christmas jumpers out and don your antlers to be in with a chance of winning! 

Tickets can be purchase from Student Reception or via the online payments section of the website. Tickets purchased for the cancelled December concert are still valid,
