Christmas comes but once a year and here in Chelsea, there’s only one way to celebrate. The RPO’s annual Christmas Cracker is as much a part of the season as mulled wine, Elf on the Shelf and the King’s Road window displays!

Join us in the festive splendour of Cadogan Hall for a real feast of Yuletide music, old and new. There’ll be well-loved songs, seasonal classics and a stocking full of tunes for the whole family, as conductor Stephen Bell and star vocalists Juliette Crosbie and Matt Ford launch the celebrations with a swing.

And it’s all gift-wrapped by the luxurious symphonic sound of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra – go on, treat yourself.
