Having sold out across the country in such a short space of time, HORRIBLE CHRISTMAS will put on a special New Years Eve show at the Great Yorkshire Showground on the 31st December, 2pm and 5pm.
Since the first announcement of CAR PARK PANTO, there has been a flurry of media attention around the unique idea of staging one of the most beloved family festive highlights in a car park. The public loved the idea also, snapping up tickets within a matter of hours leading to a complete sold out run.
Due to the phenomenal demand from Yorkshire, CAR PARK PANTO, in partnership with the Birmingham Stage Company and Horrible Histories, are announcing special New Years Eve show with two amazing performances of HORRIBLE CHRISTMAS at Great Yorkshire Showground in Harrogate on 31st December.

Neal Foster continued; “We can’t wait to be back on stage in cities and towns that will be crying out for a Christmas show to entertain their families. As you’d expect from Horrible Histories, it’s not a traditional pantomime, but a journey through the story of Christmas in the company of the season’s most fabulous characters. It’s the perfect story for families this winter, as one young boy battles to save Christmas for the world, in this hilarious, joyous and moving celebration.”
The team behind Car Park Theatre are passionate about live theatrical entertainment and, in a world where this has been put on pause, they have created the ultimate safe, social distanced solution to bring the festive cheer back into people’s lives and communities back together.
There are limited tickets for each show priced at £47 per sleigh car (£2.50 booking fee applies). Grab the reigns and secure your space for the drive-in event of the season.
