About The Nightmare Before Christmas

Join us for some festive fun under the stars, as we find out how Santa finds his way around the Earth on Christmas Eve in Santa's Starry Adventure, then settle in for a showing of The Nightmare Before Christmas. As he tries to hijack Christmas, Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Hallowe'en Town, soon discovers that even the best laid plans of mice and skeletons can go seriously awry!
