Kellie While, Simon Care and Simon Nicol join founder of Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span and The Albion Band, Ashley Hutchings on stage, for an evening of traditional English Christmas music, dancing and celebration.

‘The perfect antidote to the corporate Christmas’ The Guardian 

The Albion Christmas Band makes a welcome return to Kings Place. Featuring the combined talents of Simon Nicol (Fairport Convention), Kellie While (Albion Band), Simon Care (Edward II) and the Guvnor himself, Ashley Hutchings, this show takes you on a guided tour through the Christmas customs of Britain. With a seasonal mixture of carols, spoken word, humorous readings and dance, it really is the perfect way to start your festivities. This year will see a collection of new material alongside favourites from their back catalogue of Christmas albums.

An Albion Christmas is widely regarded as the premier seasonal show, which has been touring for 20 years, attracting sell-out audiences at venues across the UK including Buxton Opera House, The New Vic Stoke and The Sage, Gateshead. A very popular show appealing to all ages, many people say their Christmas doesn’t start until they have seen The Albion Christmas Band.
