Christmas is coming and your ‘to do’ list is longer than Santa’s! Well the Galway Music Residency has just the thing to put a festive spring in your step and keep the kids entertained all the while. Take a break from your Christmas shopping and step into a winter wonderland on Saturday 10 December at 3pm in the warm and welcoming Town Hall Theatre.

The Galway Music Residency’s hour-long Christmas Family Concert includes festive favourites for all the family performed by Galway’s own ConTempo String Quartet and features performances by Galway sopranos Bel Canto and seasonal stories narrated by Pat Hargan. Emily Lohan, Clara Tobin, Liadh Robertson and Emma Collins from Regina Rogers Dance School will delight with extracts from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite and there will be fun sing-along carols for all.

Tickets are €12, with children €8 and a special family ticket (2 adults and 2 children) €35. Tickets are available from the Town Hall Theatre on 091-569777 or www.tht.ie
