Help Make Christmas Magical for Every Child

This holiday season, you can give a child their very first trip to the theatre.

Help Make Christmas Magical for Every Child

Gift a Ticket - Sept–Dec 2025

This Christmas, you can give a child their first ever trip to the theatre, a moment of joy and wonder they’ll never forget.

At MAC, a festive show is more than just a performance. It’s a spark of imagination, a chance to laugh, dream and discover, often for the very first time. But for too many children in Birmingham, this experience remains out of reach.

Through our Every Child campaign, we work closely with trusted local organisations to invite children and families facing real hardship, including financial insecurity, displacement, or social barriers, to enjoy a magical day at the theatre.

This year’s show: The Owl Who Came for Christmas
Help us welcome children from across Birmingham to a warm, welcoming and wonder-filled performance that could change how they see the world.

Your Gift Makes the Difference

  • £15 covers the cost of a ticket for one child

  • £30 supports a child and their caregiver

  • £150+ makes you an Every Child Champion — with your name or company logo featured:

    • On MAC’s in-house screens

    • On social media

    • In our Winter Highlights Guide (print & digital)

Why It Matters

Thousands of local children grow up without access to live performance - not from lack of interest, but because of postcode, poverty, or circumstance. Your donation removes that barrier.

If you’ve ever seen a child light up in the theatre, or remember the moment it sparked something in you, you know the power it holds.

Together, we can share that feeling. One ticket at a time.
