Holiday Events in Carmel-by-the-Sea

Smuin Christmas Ballet

It’s beginning to look a lot like Holiday Time in Carmel!  

The village is dressed in glitter and lights and the famous Tree Lighting on Ocean Avenue has already happened. But have no fear that you’ve missed all the holiday celebrations – one of Carmel’s most anticipated events is happening this weekend! Every year San Francisco’s Smuin Ballet graces the Sunset Center with their “fiercely festive”  Christmas Ballet. It’s been a favorite of mine (and yes, my husband’s too!) for years. We never miss a performance.

The 2022 edition of the Christmas Ballet returns December 9th and 10th with an evening performance Friday night and a matinee on Saturday. The Smuin ensemble will thrill and delight with a dazzling program of ballet, contemporary, character, Broadway jazz, and tap.

So, let’s ring in the holidays with Smuin’s “The Christmas Ballet“. Every performance is brimming with “sublime classical ballet set to carols and show-stopping contemporary works” danced to pop music favorites. The choreography is by Michael Smuin as well as inventive premieres by up-and-coming dance-makers. Every year new dances are added as well as bringing back old favorites. It will certainly be a treat for all ages. My husband and I usually go to the matinee which I love. I not only get to enjoy the ballet, but get to see all the excited faces of future ballerinas in the audience. Usually little girls about 8 years old in their pretty dresses and tutus.

See you there for a “yuletide spectacular” that’s been called “sheer joy”!

Do you remember this ode to summertime? What memories come up for you? Please share!

For me it was heading to the beach, not a care in the world, feeling the warm sun on my face and the sand between my toes.

Wait, I can still do that now! Yea!

Whatever your summer wishes and dreams are I hope you are on your way to making them come true.
