When you think of Christmas classics to watch during winter, which films come to mind? For us, it’s The Muppet Christmas Carol, Love Actually, Elf, and of course, The Holiday.

This feel good film stars Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet as two singletons wanting to escape their heartbreak over the Christmas period. They come across each other on a home swap website, and decide to travel across the pond: Kate Winslet swapping the English countryside for sunny California, and Cameron Diaz doing the opposite. (We know who we think got the better end of the deal!).

As all great Christmas films go, romance is on the cards for the two women. They both meet, and fall in love with, two eligible bachelors in their home swap city.

For fans of The Holiday, there’s a new way to enjoy this Christmas classic. The film will be presented live in concert this winter in both London and Glasgow, with its entire musical score being performed by an orchestra.

The film’s musical score comes from award-winning German film score composer, Hans Zimmer, who’s famous for other movie scores such as The Lion King, Gladiator, and The Dark Knight. So you can be sure to expect a brilliant performance.

Originally scheduled for one night only in London, The Holiday — Film With Live Orchestra has added a second evening in Glasgow. Here’s how you can get tickets.
