The Nutcracker returns to the Royal Albert Hall this Christmas from Birmingham Royal Ballet.
This enchanting production, featuring Tchaikovsky’s glorious score, is a sparkling festive treat for the whole family.

Don’t miss your chance to relive the magic of Christmas, as Clara’s nutcracker doll and toy soldiers come to life at the stroke of midnight and journey through a fantastical winter wonderland of dancing snowflakes and the kingdom of the Sugar Plum Fairy!
