Festive family musical based on the 2003 film Elf, with evening shows and a Saturday matinee at Salisbury City Hall.
ELF! The Musical comes to Salisbury City Hall from Wednesday 25 to Saturday 28 November, a family show based on the 2003 film. It's a festive one, so it fits right into the run-up to Christmas.
The story follows Buddy, an orphan who accidentally ends up at the North Pole and is raised as one of Santa's elves. He's a bit of an odd one out from the start — his oversized stature and lack of toy-making talent eventually reveal he's human, not an elf. With Santa's blessing, he sets off for New York City to find his real father, only to discover the man is on the naughty list. It's a family-friendly tale, packed with catchy songs, humour and festive cheer, and it centres on the true meaning of Christmas.
It's playing at Salisbury City Hall on Malthouse Lane, SP2 7TU. The venue itself is a purpose-built performance and events space that reopened in September 2025 after a five-year closure, and it's now one of Wiltshire's leading live entertainment venues. There's a new café being built at the Fisherton Street entrance, too, so it's a good spot to head to if you're making an evening of it.
