Subscribe to Events and Festivals BlogChristmas is not the same without all the cheer this festival is known for. Tradition marks the heart of such festivities which is fun and symbolic to the 25th of December. Since Christmas festivities have a lot to do with the Western culture, it always comes with a winter theme as its backdrop with snow adding a magical touch to this special day. In Australia and New Zealand although Christmas is profoundly celebrated, the weather really does not match up to the Christmas theme. Here such a celebration is nice and bright and sunny and everything traditionally winter based seems a bit off for the nice warm weather outdoors. Yet countries like Australia and New Zealand go all out in keeping the spirit of the season alive. Shows are performed and even artificial snow is created.
There is one particular event held in New Zealand that is a popular crowd puller. It is the Royal Christmas Variety Show. This musical event is held every year in the month of November to gear up its audience for the festive month up ahead. It is performed with such ardour that it brings to life the perfect spirit to enjoy everyone’s favourite holiday season.
The Royal Variety Christmas Show is fully equipped with the musical charms of Christmas. Carols boom from the speakers as popular performers sing to the tune and dance to the rhythm. The show is led by the famous Sue who has one talented team to take her audience to the heart of festivity. However that is not all that one can look forward to as the show is composed of other songs, interesting performances and plenty of hands on entertainment. The unique fact about the event is how it captivates its audience. Before long you will be in a laughing, crying, singing, cheering and clapping all at one time. The show truly moves its audience. All this is only the first half of the show. The second half is all about the snow and all the seasonal celebrations like the famous elves, carols and so much more.
If you have come to New Zealand to partake in this show come home to the Millennium & Copthorne Hotels NZ. These New Zealand hotels are the best Greymouth hotels there is.
