Following the success of last year’s sensational show, Myleene has announced that she will return to host ‘Christmas Spectacular’ at The O2 this December. Myleene proved a massive hit presenting the show and leading the audience in the singing of old favourites during last year’s concert. Myleene said: “There’s always a really special feeling around Christmas time and so I’m excited to be part of this again. The atmosphere was electric and I know the Christmas spirit will be well and truly alive and kicking this year.”
As announced in June, Raymond Gubbay, the classical spectacular impresario, will return to The O2 this December with a second Christmas Spectacular. Presented in association with Daily Mail, the event on Thursday 23rd December will be a rousing night of carols, traditional tunes and some cracking Christmas number ones.
Anthony Inglis will conduct the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in this Christmas extravaganza which will also feature Rhydian Roberts and Ruthie Henshall, Wynne Evans, Alison Jiear, the Royal Choral Society and Capital Voices. The concert will be all the public have come to expect of Gubbay’s productions with light displays, special effects and an indoor firework finale.
Raymond Gubbay commented: ‘I am delighted to be returning to The O2 with my Christmas Spectacular. Last year proved that an audience of 20,000 certainly creates an incredible atmosphere in which to celebrate Christmas – I am sure this year will be even more enchanting and impressive.”
David Campbell, Chief Executive of AEG Europe, owners and operators of The O2, said: ‘Raymond Gubbay is a tour de force and I am thrilled he will be bringing his Christmas production back to The O2. The O2 has ventured into the classical sphere before with great success and I know visitors will flock to see what is sure to be an unforgettable Christmas Spectacular.”
