Advertising Feature by The Doorstep Elves
After a sell-out run of shows last Christmas, Hitchin's very own The Doorstep Elves are back again with a brand new show this December.
This time, filling that Twixmas gap between Christmas and New Year with the annual Jingle Bell Ball - The North Pole’s biggest party ever! And you're invited!
Santa has left 2 trusty elves in charge but with so much to do, will everything be ready in time?
With even more singing, dancing, audience interaction plus a mini disco at the end, this is one party you want to be on the guest list for!
Show dates: 28th, 29th, 30th & 31st December 2024
Show times: 9:30am, 11:30am, 1:30pm, 3:30pm
Show running time: 30mins, plus Disco - 15 mins.
Location: The British Schools Museum, Hitchin, SG4 9TS
