So glad to see the Singing Christmas Tree back performing! A great evening of fantastic performances!
It was an amazing show I missed going to it but wow what a come back. Can’t wait till next year thanks for bringing it home…
This year I was able to take my family including my parents to watch the show and it was absolutely amazing!! Such a Beautiful and emotional evening❤️ thank you!
The music was great and the singers/ dancers were fantastic. The children were so cute too! Gotta say that this is probably a new tradition for my family!
My afternoon at the Expo centre for the Singing Christmas Tree was delightful! All of it, the amazing music, the dancing, the lights, the stage set up! I was truly impressed by the performance. The resounding message of hope was clearly there … Kudos to John Cameron for his leadership!
Excellent and venue well presented. was a great surprise at how the presentation work so well. beautiful.
Great show. Highly skilled performers. Great orchestra!
We were very impressed with the way the afternoon went. From wheelchair access to the seats we purchased. The show itself was incredible with the talent, lighting, acrobatics, children and music. I loved the venue and will definitely be sure to tell others about this amazing event.
Fantastic, incredible musicians, superb singers, dancers and excellent production.we will go again… Thankyou all
The return of the John Cameron Edmonton Singing Christmas Tree after a five-year hiatus was nothing short of magical! This iconic holiday tradition brilliantly blends the nostalgia of Christmas with uplifting entertainment that warms the heart and captivates the spirit. The new stage design at the Edmonton Expo is a true marvel, adding just the right touch of modernity to enhance the visual appeal while maintaining the show’s classic charm. The vibrant lighting, dynamic visuals, and stunning tree centerpiece create an immersive festive atmosphere that pulls you right into the holiday spirit. The talent on stage is exceptional, with powerful singers, energetic dancers, and the adorable kids' choir delivering joy and awe to audiences of all ages. Every performance feels meticulously crafted, and the mix of traditional carols with contemporary numbers ensures there’s something for everyone. This reimagined production is a masterpiece, a must-see event that has solidified its place as an Edmonton Christmas staple. Bravo to everyone involved—thank you for bringing this timeless holiday tradition back better than ever! 🎄✨
The performance was very uplifting. The music was upbeat,well performed. The talent in all performers was obvious. The performers seemed to be having fun. I did miss the focus on the tree choir. I was not able to get a program. A very enjoyable time, will go again
I love to go every year and was happy to have the option again this year. The venue however was disappointing. The space is not right for this type of performance. The sound, acoustics and atmosphere just felt off the whole time. I also was disappointed that Hailey Benedict only performed once. She is an amazing talent that should have been showcased more. Her voice with the children’s choir would have been incredible. I love so much of what John is trying to do however, was very disappointed this year. Please consider a more intimate venue for the future.
I did not like the venue The show at times was “flat” I enjoyed some parts.
I was so excited when I heard the Edmonton Singing Christmas Tree was being reimagined for the Expo Centre Arena. I counted the days to the event, and now that it has come and gone I find myself already counting the days until the 2025 event! The amount of talent that we have in the Edmonton area is astounding. The amazing MASSIVE LED screen, the dancers, the acrobatic Violinist, the children's choir, the amazing orchestra - all of that in itself would be an amazing show. But on top of the soloists duets and ensembles, we are treated the the voices of the choir in the tree! I laughed and cried. There isn't another show like this anywhere! This is a must-do for anyone that is anywhere near the Edmonton area during showtimes.
Overall, it was a delightful experience with excellent performances - appreciated the local talent. The choreography and lighting effects were spectacular. Not sure about the reason for the high wire opening. That seemed more appropriate for a cirque performance, although the violinist was very talented. I have to say that the Jubilee Auditorium venue was a more elegant and sophisticated venue than the Expo Centre and the acoustics were better. People bringing in popcorn and drinks is more appropriate for a cinema or a circus. However, the work and organization that went into bringing the experience was appreciated. Thank you.
Excellent show. I loved the new stage. Great location.
Great production , we have gone multiple times and always enjoyed the singing Christmas tree. Glad it’s back. The new venue is great. Easy access , easy parking , comfortable seats. All around a great experience. Hope the singing Christmas tree will be around for many years. We will be going every year. 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Adult choir, orchestra, children’s choir and the ‘Twelve Days of Christmas’ were the highlights of the show. Too many solos and duets…isn’t the show called “The Edmonton Christmas Tree”? My wife and I came to mostly hear the choir…not a slew of meaningless and dull performances. The solo and duets were all too slowly paced and far too loud. Some were yelling, not singing. The sound system was too loud…young children sitting around us were covering their ears on some of the performances. Maybe this loudness was required due to the acoustics at the Expo Center? John Cameron was a fantastic host. The stage design was excellent. The two screens were a great idea as well as the lyrics display on the sing-a-long number. We would love to go back but only if they cut out most of the solos and duets. John Cameron’s solo is one of the keeper’s…you could actually understand the lyrics. More choir, please!
The show is Awesome ! It's entertaining I enjoy watching it with good singers with symphony orchestra and good singing and dancing. It's worth it ! Good job ! Thumbs up ! Keep it up !
As a veteran of Community Theater Productions, as well as big stage productions, this was a happy mix of both- the organic feel of a home growth production, with the lights, stage presence of a Broadway production. I was quite pleased with the overall show, the lightheartedness of the environment, and yet, the performances were amazing and the lightshow/backdrop was engaging. I took my wife out for the date night experience, and she was not disappointed. I know I will attend in the future productions, as well as the summer performance. Great stuff- keep up the great work!
