What to expect
Be part of a magical evening of festive spirit as we look back on and celebrate the progress your support has made possible for men this year.
On this not-so silent night, sing along and experience the joy of uplifting carols from both gospel and traditional choirs. We’ll be captivated by readings from Olympian-turned-broadcaster Kriss Akabusi and dancer-choreographer Wayne Sleep. Laura Kerby, CEO of Prostate Cancer UK, will also reflect on the incredible strides and huge impact we’ve made together in 2024 for those living with prostate cancer.
And if you would like to, our special tribute tree will be lit to remember loved ones that are no longer with us. You’re welcome to hang your tribute bauble, which you’ll receive with your printed tickets. So bring your family and friends. Grab some mulled wine, a mince pie and roast chestnuts as you take your seat. And get ready to make some new memories together.
You won’t want to miss this night of celebration and holiday cheer!
