THE magic of Christmas is coming to Cheshire with world-renowned violinist and conductor André Rieu’s annual festive concert.

Filmed in Maastricht, André’s hometown, Gold and Silver will be screened at Reel Widnes in December.

Bringing all the warmth, joy and sparkle of Christmas to the big screen, Gold and Silver will be a dazzling celebration of festive glamour and extraordinary music, brought to life on the big screen.

The concert hall will be with 150 twinkling chandeliers, 50 Venetian candelabras, and even an ice rink.

André and his Johann Strauss Orchestra will dazzle audiences with mesmerizing performances of timeless Christmas classics and carols.

The programme features timeless favourites like Jingle Bells, Ave Maria and Silent Night as well as Hallelujah and Sleigh Ride.

André said: "Christmas holds a special magic for me—a time to share the love and beauty of music while creating memories that last a lifetime.

“Music has the unique ability to bring people together, and during the holiday season, this becomes even more meaningful.

“Christmas is about more than just the festivities; it’s a time for connection, for gathering with friends and family, and for celebrating the moments that bind us.

“At its heart, Christmas reminds us of the importance of being together.

“In a world that often feels busy and fast-paced, the season offers us a moment to pause, reflect, and cherish the relationships that matter most.

“Music has the power to transcend words and touch our hearts in ways that remind us of the love we share with those around us.

“I hope Gold & Silver brings a little of that magic to your holiday season.”

The Christmas spectacular, which is presented by Charlotte Hawkins, will be aired from Saturday, December 7.
