Christmas concert by André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra, with special guest Emma Kok, filmed in Maastricht and screened in UK cinemas.
André Rieu is coming to Odeon Bournemouth on 5 and 6 December, part of a two-day cinema screening of his 2026 Christmas concert, Let It Snow. It's not a live gig in the usual sense — the whole thing was filmed at Rieu's Winter Palace in Maastricht and is being broadcast in more than 500 cinemas across the UK, so you'll be watching it on the big screen rather than seeing him in the flesh.
On stage are André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra, joined by sopranos, a 100-voice male choir and special guest Emma Kok. The programme mixes festive favourites like 'Let It Snow', 'All I Want for Christmas', 'Feliz Navidad', 'Jingle Bells' and 'Silent Night' with Rieu's signature waltzes and classical pieces. It's a Christmas concert in the truest sense, with the carols and seasonal songs sitting alongside the orchestral work he's known for.
