What is in a Christmas package?
Christmas is the biggest night of the year for many teams. Festive acts make it feel like an occasion: LED and gold nutcrackers at the door, festive living statues, champagne walkers and stilt walkers.
Combine Christmas with another theme (Christmas in Paris, a Gatsby Christmas or a Winter Wonderland) for something different from last year.
