With the holidays fast approaching, we’re all searching for ways to make the season feel extra special. Thankfully, the best gift of all is also the simplest…

Time together.

As the only professional theatre for live arts in the Tri-Cities, Evergreen Cultural Centre (ECC) is making it easy to spend quality time with loved ones, thanks to their packed winter calendar, which includes a special performance of the timeless holiday ballet, The Nutcracker by Ballet Victoria

Set on Christmas Eve when young Clara receives a Nutcracker doll that comes to life, The Nutcracker features countless iconic holiday characters like the Sugar Plum Fairy and the evil Mouse King. With its whimsical story, dazzling costumes and festive score, it’s become a cherished holiday tradition since it was first performed way back in 1892. Ballet Victoria’s esteemed rendition of The Nutcracker will feature Tchaikovsky’s timeless score, brought to life by The Victoria Symphony. The performances, which include both matinee and evening shows, will take place between Dec 17 and 19  and are a surefire way to get in the holiday spirit this year.

We’ve partnered with Evergreen Cultural Centre to award one lucky winner a chance to take part in the tradition. The winner will receive a family pack of tickets to The Nutcracker on Thursday, Dec 19 at either 3:00 PM or 7:00 PM.

The grand prize includes:

  •  4 tickets (any combo of adult, senior, or student pricing)

Total Value: Approx. $118

If you’re in need of a little extra holiday cheer, you’re in luck—Ballet Victoria’s performance is just one of many festive offerings at Evergreen Cultural Centre this season, located right beside the magical Lights at Lafarge. Other highlights include Coastal Sound Choir’s heartwarming Comfort and Joy concert, Hot Chocolate Nights at the Art Gallery at Evergreen and Vancouver harpist Janelle Nadeau’s A Prairie Christmas.
