Each December, the NSPCC celebrates the festive season by hosting its flagship Christmas concert in aid of Childline. Following four years of sell-out success, Childline’s Merry Little Christmas returns to celebrate its 14th year.

This year’s event is hosted by English ballroom dancer and Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas.

All guests receive a welcome drink and mince pie on arrival and will enjoy an enchanting evening packed with spectacular musical performances, ever-popular carols, BBC’s Young Chorister of the Year 2022, a children’s choir, and acts from celebrity special guests, including Michael Ball, Lord Julian Fellowes and  Ellen Williams.

Previous concerts welcomed Her Royal Highness The Countess of Wessex, Alison Steadman OBE, Natalie Dormer, Jamie Cullum, Leona Lewis, Martin Freeman, Elaine Paige and Anton Du Beke.

Guests can bid in our luxury silent auction for the opportunity to take home the perfect Christmas gift.

*VIP ticket holders and celebrity supporters will be welcomed to a post-concert sparkling reception with champagne and canapés.

All funds raised go directly to Childline, a life-changing NSPCC service.
