I’m a sucker for the holidays! What can I say?
The lights, the decor, the carols, the feeling of togetherness.
Getting swept up in the simple joys of the season is a lovely feeling and there are many events coming up to get you in the festive mood. Here’s a sampling of what to expect.
If watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas” is one of your annual holiday traditions, you’ll want to catch Alberta Theatre Projects’ “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown,” which runs from November 22 - December 30 at the Martha Cohen Theatre.
See the Peanuts gang live, like you’ve never seen them before!
The Bay’s “Party Perfect” Beauty Event on November 22 will help you find your signature look for the season, and let you take advantage of exciting offers, demonstrations, gifts with purchase and draws.
Knox United Church will host The Festival Chorus, joined by The Festival String Orchestra and Celtic musicians on Irish harp, Irish pipes, flute, whistle, and fiddle for ‘A Celtic Christmas’ on November 24. This concert will feature “Celtic Mass for the Sea,” as well as beloved carols from the Celtic, Gaelic and Cornish traditions.
Join The Young Canadians and Santa for a journey of fun and laughter in ‘A Christmas Spectacular’ on November 25, at the Jack Singer. Songs from Christmas past and present will bring you into the hustle and bustle of the North Pole as they prepare for their busiest time of the year.
