Get ready to rock your hearts out this Christmas at the Rockin’ Rhinos Christmas Cracker at Z-arts, taking place on 8 December.

Grab your dancing shoes and join John Cooper Cat, Liam Lion, Mani Mouse, and the whole animal crew for a Christmas concert like no other with the INCREDIBLE, smashin’ Rockin Rhinos Christmas Cracker. Enjoy a wild and wonderful gig where ska, rock, and punk mash with classics and original tunes. 

The Rockin Rhinos band always have everyone on their feet, and this gig will be no different. You’ll be dancing along to holiday hits like Merry Christmas Everybody, Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town, and the band will also sprinkle their magic to favourites like Rudy the Red-Nosed Reindeer and (Not Very) Silent Night – sounds fun, right?! 

It’s a loud and lively show with more than enough room for dancing, laughter, and heaps and heaps of holiday fun. Two half-hour sets mean it’s not so long if you’ve got little kids with you, and there’s time in between each set to grab a drink or snack, so energy levels can stay on top – which is hugely important with all that dancing and general fun-having.

It’s great for kids and grownups of all ages, and will leave you with memories to last forever, as well as getting you right in the Christmas spirit. What a way to kick off the holiday season. 

You’ll be feeling some serious FOMO if you don’t come to this party. Book now for The Rockin’ Rhinos Christmas Cracker at Z-arts and join the fun, you know you want to.
