The 2025 holiday season is finally upon us, bringing Boston Ballet's The Nutcracker and more holiday shows for kids to Boston. The Boston Ballet Company's performance of The Nutcracker is a timeless treat, and the best nutcracker in Boston for a traditional holiday show. Our favorite high-energy adaptation of the classic is Anthony Williams' Urban Nutcracker, with its diverse, upbeat choreography.
Want to keep things merry and bright for your family all season long? Tchaikovsky's beloved confection is hardly the only holiday-themed stage performance. Holiday shows are delighting kids across Boston and New England, this month and next. At Boston's 2025 holiday shows, families can carol with the BSO's Holiday Pops and delight in Scrooge's journey in A Christmas Carol. Tickets will sell out for these must-see performances faster than cookies go on Christmas Eve! We advise booking sooner than later.
