It's one of the biggest Christmas shows in Europe, and people now have another chance to peek behind the scenes.

Thursford has announced a sixth and final date for its Tea & Tour events following huge demand.

The backstage tour invites audiences behind the curtain of the famous Christmas Spectacular as it enters its 47th year - from looking inside performers’ dressing rooms to getting up close to over 2000 costumes.

Following a sold-out run of tours in 2023, Thursford announced new dates for their 2024 season at the beginning of February.

More tickets and an additional date were released after selling out within 48 hours.

Due to demand, the team have now decided to release a sixth and final date.

“The reaction to our Tea & Tour events has been phenomenal,” John Cushing, director and producer of Thursford said.

“We’re thrilled so many want to come behind the scenes of the Christmas Spectacular. It’s going to be a truly unique experience, and the opportunity to uncover a few secrets.”

The final date for 2024 will take place on Wednesday, August 28, 11am – 4pm. The Tea & Tour event includes a backstage tour, entry to the Steam Museum and afternoon tea in The Garden Pavilion. Tickets cost £36 per person.
