THURSFORD CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR BACKSTAGE TOUR & AFTERNOON TEA

Wednesday 14th June 2023

Go behind the scenes of one of the UK’s leading Christmas shows and undercover the secrets behind its success.

The Thursford Christmas Spectacular has been entertaining theatre lovers for over 45 years with its seasonal variety show becoming an annual fixture for many during November and December. Each year, thousands flock to this must-see show, with many travelling across the country. Last year was the biggest showcase yet.

But now, the Thursford Collection is welcoming guests on a special backstage tour, offering the chance to uncover what goes on behind the scenes, including a look inside performer dressing rooms and getting up close in the costume store, which houses over 2000 costumes. Guests are also encouraged to bring their own questions to find out everything about the show and more.

The behind the scenes tour will take place on Wednesday 14th June, followed by an afternoon tea served in the Barn or Carousel Café. Tickets also include entry to the museum, which houses the world’s largest collection of steam engines, organs, fairground carousels and tractors.
