Revel in WINTER!

Bring the whole family to this heartwarming holiday event! The Academy Award-nominated holiday film based on Raymond Briggs’ beloved classic book is brought to life with a full orchestra.

Filled with magic and adventure, The Snowman is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season! You’ll also hear holiday classics featuring the Mankato Ballet dancing to selections from Tchaikovky’s The Nutcracker Suite and a world premiere exploration of Minnesota wildlife with Bold North, also performed live to film.
