Checked on 13 October 2026.

Overview

A Christmas opera show presented by Candlelight at St James's Church on Piccadilly, built around Nessun Dorma, the famous aria from Puccini's Turandot.

The show brings opera into a Christmas theme, with Nessun Dorma, the aria from Puccini's Turandot, at its centre. Its title places the evening within the Candlelight series, and the pairing of a seasonal theme with one of the most recognised arias in the operatic repertoire gives the evening a clear focus.

The performance takes place at St James's Church, a religious building in Piccadilly, so the evening is staged in a church rather than a theatre. Its setting makes the seasonal theme a natural fit for the venue.

The show suits opera lovers, Christmas audiences and newcomers to Puccini's music looking for a seasonal evening of opera in central London.
