The Highgate Village Christmas Festival – a magical wonderland with giant snow globe containing dancers, main stage hosted by Alex Zane and mystery celebrity to switch on lights at 4pm.
In Pond Square Santa will bring some of his reindeer and elves to his grotto, and a magical fairy will be granting wishes. There will even be a dancing Christmas tree!
Also appearing Cinderella’s Carriage from BBC Strictly Come Dancing Christmas spectacular 2012 pulled by two beautiful white horses.
Mulled wine, hog roast, mince pies and hot chocolate. Don’t miss it!
If you’re drunk on power can you ever sober up?
Luis and BK are stationed at a remote border crossing between their two countries. BK believes that somewhere out there, mysterious creatures roam the desert. The chance discovery of a strange other-world takes the two guards on a journey into the dark heart of politics, tyranny and murder.
Absurd comedy and grotesque puppetry combine to explore nationalism, leadership and the terrible consequences of using another man’s toilet.
We’re proud to be part of Suspense – London Puppetry Festival again in 2015. The festival presents diverse and impressive puppetry productions from both the UK and international artists. Produced by Little Angel Theatre, Suspense dispels the myth that puppetry is just for children.
8PM & 3PM (Sat Matinee)

In another little step back to the ethos of the London Novello Ensemble – which is the presentation of great music outside the formal constraints of the concert hall – Murray and Gavin present the two opposites of late 19th century romanticism along with music by Delius, Vitali and Sarasate, and a selection of popular tangos including Piazzolla’s famous ‘Libertango’
Gavin Davies studied the violin with Marta Eitler and at the Royal College of Music with Jaroslav Vanecek and Natasha Boyarsky. He combines a freelance orchestral career with ensembles such as the London Philharmonic and BBC Concert orchestras with regular chamber music and solo performances.
Murray Hipkin is a fulltime member of the music staff at English National Opera, where he has conducted The Mikado, The Gondoliers, The Pirates of Penzance, Kismet, Carousel, Chess and Man of la Mancha. He is musical director of the Pink Singers and the North London Chorus and he recently finished filming Anyone Can Sing for ENO/Sky Arts in the role of music supervisor and accompanist.
Programme to include:
Brahms – Sonata No. 1 in G
Liszt – Romance
Delius – Sonata No. 3
Vitali – Chaconne
Sarasate – Zigeunerweisen
Tangos by Albeniz, Gade, and Piazzolla
