      • A live re-telling of the Christmas Story

        Christmas Carols, Live Animals, Music and more.

      • Christmas Live last year (2022)

        Last year (15 December 2022, 6.30pm),

        Mr Olly Cheshire from Douglas Town Centre Management

        (otherwise known as Mr Christmas)

        and a number of local groups,

        gave Douglas a huge treat for the whole family:

        • Unity Dance School gave us some pretty awesome Angelic dancing;
        • Manx Gateway Drama Group provided our costumed characters;
        • There were real, actual, live sheep there to see and stroke before and after;
        • Spinnin' Vannin Performing Arts exploded onto the scene with much needed fire-angels!;
        • Isle of Man Scouts and Girlguides, entered with a lit candle literally from Bethlehem itself, it had travelled by road and air ... The 'Peace Light' candle;
        • Ruth Keggin-Gell (Manx Language Development Officer) taught us all a Manx Lullaby;
        • We sang along with a brilliant 'karaoke' Christmas re-write, and upbeat trad carols along the way;
        • Richard Costain popped over from Liverpool just to sing "O Holy Night" for us, before returning for a concert with the Liverpool Philharmonic!;
        • The Salvation Army Band warmed us all up with trad tunes as we entered;
        • Judith Ley from Manx Radio helped promote the event far and wide;
        • Volunteers from various churches and communities across the Isle of Man gave us a band, picked litter, checked tickets and gave out programmes;
        • Rev Alex Brown (Pioneer Minister) provided co-ordination, presenting and planning;
        • Emma Nudd from Broadway Baptist Church was co-presenter;
        • Switched On Events were all over the stage, sound and lights;
        • Tevir Group opened up the use of Villiers Square for us;
         

        An unforgettable Christmas Fix for the family.
