HIGHLIGHTS: Thursford Christmas Spectacular
The three hour Christmas performance delivers an extravaganza of non-stop singing, dancing, music, humour (adult) and speciality acts. It’s a fast moving celebration of the festive season
featuring an eclectic mix of both seasonal and year-round favourites, with famous and much-loved chart toppers being performed alongside traditional carols.
Word of this amazing show has spread and it is now generally recognised as being the largest show of its kind in the country, if not Europe. Up to fifty coaches per day travel from all over the country and many of our patrons have visited year on year, turning the trip into a mini holiday staying in the county’s hotels, guest houses and holiday cottages.
If you are searching for a festive day out with the family, look no further than this special Christmas event in Norfolk.
