No Christmas would be complete without the majestic performance that is Handel's Messiah. Still one of the best oratorios ever written, its impact and appeal never diminishes. If you've never heard it, now is the time, especially when it's performed by the Ulster Orchestra, guest soloists and Belfast Philharmonic Choir.

Our regular performance partners Belfast Philharmonic Choir have a special birthday this year, and we’re delighted to be part fo their 150th celebrations! ‘The Phil’ are one of only a handful of choral societies that have an unbroken record of performance since their inception and their first performance in 1874 of Mendelssohn’s Elijah. The date and music couldn’t be better, so join the celebrations with a performance of Mendelssohn’s dramatic, epic oratorio that depicts earthquake, fire and the still, small voice of God.
