Christmas will return to Cadogan Hall for a special concert production by the West End Does team – though plans have altered slightly due to the new capacity restrictions.

Running for two performances over one night on 13 December, the concert will feature a variety of stars singing festive tunes to a socially distanced audience. It will now also be filmed and subsequently released on 19 and 20 December at 7pm. Tickets will be £12 on a pay-per-view basis.

UPDATE: The stream will also be available from 7pm on 23 December until midnight on Christmas Eve.

For live attendees – the venue will be completely Covid-compliant with all safety regulations taken to mitigate risks.

Appearing in the event will be Killian Donnelly, Louise Dearman, Rachel John and Oliver Tompsett, with tickets on sale now via the Cadogan Hall website. There will be shows at 3pm and 7pm.
