Storytime for Kids with the NZSO: A musical adventure with Paddington Bear™’s First Concert

Bring your favourite bear, keep your marmalade sandwiches under your hat, and join the free family fun as we all head to the Royal Albert Hall!

Embark on a musical journey inspired by Paddington’s adventures from Peru to his conducting debut at the Royal Albert Hall, presented by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.

It promises to be an enchanting experience for both the young and the young at heart.
