The Snowman with Live Brass Band at St Michael's Centre

About this event

Experience The Snowman like never before this Christmas! As the beloved animated film plays on the big screen, listen to the talented musicians of Filton Concert Brass bring Howard Blake's enchanting score to life right before your eyes. Feel the warmth of the season, share the wonder with your loved ones, and let the soaring notes of "Walking in the Air" fill you with festive joy. Book your seats early for this seasonal treat as it is always a sell out! Featuring 28 piece brass band, pianist and vocalist! Created by the late illustrator and novelist Raymond Briggs and first published in 1978, this festive tale originally started out as a wordless picture book. Its delightful sketches tell the story of James, a young boy so excited by the snow that he runs outside to build a snowman – but little does he know, his chilly friend will come to life at midnight! James and the Snowman quickly form a friendship, spending the rest of the morning playing with toys and inventing games. But with James' parents fast asleep, they have to stay quiet. Then, the Snowman takes the boy on a flying adventure which, in the TV adaptation includes meeting Father Christmas, going for a ride on a motorbik
