Christmas family pantomime of Aladdin at The Tivoli Theatre, recommended for all ages.
Aladdin is coming to The Tivoli Theatre this Christmas, running from 27 to 31 December 2026 and then on 2 January 2027. It's one of the Tivoli's family spectaculars for the 2026/7 season, billed as a family panto, so it's built for taking the whole lot along rather than just the kids.
The show runs for 2 hours and 10 minutes, and it's recommended for audiences of all ages, which means it works as well for the grandparents as it does for the little ones. If you're planning around the school holidays, that's a fair bit of theatre to fit into a single afternoon.
One of the best things about the run is how many times it plays. There are five different showtimes each day—11:00am, 2:30pm, 3:30pm, 6:00pm and 7:00pm—so you can pick a slot that actually fits your day rather than having to build your whole Christmas schedule around it. Whether you want a morning treat, a mid-afternoon outing, or an evening out, there's a time that works. With the run stretching from the 27th right through to the 2nd of January, you've got plenty of dates to choose from across the break.
