A Christmas Celtic Sojourn to return with live, in-person concerts

To order tickets : https://www.christmasceltic.com

There's big news today: A Christmas Celtic Sojourn will return as a live, in-person concert series this December. And we will also, for the first time, offer a virtual, online experience of the show’s magic for those who might not be able to attend. Our goal is to be there for you again this holiday season as we reemerge to a sense of normality. We look forward to singing together our familiar songs as we gather an amazing array of singers, dancers, and musicians. 

While we are so looking forward to opening at the cozy Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport on December 14th, we needed to reduce the overall number of performances and touring. We will have just one weekend of shows all at the Cutler Majestic Theatre in downtown Boston on December 17th, 18th, and 19th. Unfortunately, in this time of rebuilding, we will not be touring the show to our favorite spots around New England and will miss those audiences. But we look forward to being back in the future. As as a result, there will be far fewer tickets available and we urge you to act quickly if you are interested in joining us. 

Tickets for the Cutler Majestic Theatre will go on sale this Wednesday, October 20th, at 12pm ET. You can be first in line by marking your calendars and then clicking on this link when that time comes: www.christmasceltic.com

Some of the best tickets became available last weekend during Brian O’Donovan’s radio program on GBH Radio between 3-6PM.As you know, GBH is public broadcasting and occasionally has fundraising programs. Tomorrow’s edition of A Celtic Sojourn is a fundraiser and limited tickets to the Cutler Majestic Theatre’s performances will be available as a thank you gift. Be sure to tune in on 89.7FM or online at www.wgbh.org. 

Meanwhile, preparations are being made to offer the live show as a stream, online during the times listed below. Tickets for the “stream only” edition are not on sale yet, but will be shortly. We will let you know in advance.
