Overview

This Christmas experience The Holiday film with a live orchestra

Don’t miss beloved Christmas romcom, The Holiday (2006) presented live in concert this festive season with the film’s legendary Hans Zimmer score played live-to-film by Southern Cross Symphony.

The in-concert experience with full orchestra and cinema size screen is an incredibly unique and immersive way to experience The Holiday, which has become a cult Christmas viewing experience for many.

A Universal Pictures production, The Holiday stars Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black, tells the story of how two women who have never met and live 6,000 miles apart find themselves in the same exact place.

They meet online at a home exchange website and impulsively switch homes for the holiday. Iris moves into Amanda’s L.A. house in sunny California as Amanda arrives in the snow-covered English countryside. Shortly after arriving at their destinations, both women find the last thing either wants or expects, a new romance.

The score for The Holiday was written by world renowned, highly celebrated and multiple Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winning composer Hans Zimmer.

I watched The Holiday with a live orchestra, and it was a magical way to watch a Christmas movie.
