Teatru Manoel’s 12 Days of Christmas Carols

As part of their Christmas programme, Teatru Manoel presents ‘12 Days of Christmas Carols’, a series of festive concerts to be held between December 18 and January 4.

The event is their own musical spin on the 12 days of Christmas tradition, with 12 dates throughout the festive season (December 18-22, December 26-29, January 2-4). 10 different midday concerts will be performed on these days, some of which twice, all of which at noon. Each one is unique in terms of the program and performers.

These concerts will be headed by various young talented musicians, who’ll showcase their skills on such instruments as the piano, violin, viola, cello, clarinet, and more. Although the concerts are being produced by Teatru Manoel, the performances will take place in the recently refurbished Sala Isouard in Valletta.

Adult tickets cost €10, while children under the age of 12 get in for free. Tickets can be purchased on Teatru Manoel’s official site here. All proceeds will go to the Malta Community Chest Fund Foundation.
