Jim's Christmas Cracker
2026-12-04 19:30 - 22:00 (Europe/London) | Britannia Pier Theatre, Britannia Pier, Great Yarmouth, NR30 2EH
Grab your baubles and stuff your stockings because Jim Davidson OBE is back and naughtier than ever! Despite the best efforts of the “woke” snowflakes trying to cancel this comedic legend, Jim continues to jingle all the way to sold-out shows year after year. The silenced majority have spoken, and they’re saying, “More Jim, please!” Get ready for an evening of uproarious, adults-only comedy that’s as inappropriate as a mistletoe mishap at the office Christmas party.
In this brand-new Festive show for 2026, Jim invites you to join him in unwrapping the funniest Christmas present you’ll get this year—a night full of laughs, cheeky one-liners, and the kind of humour that’s spicier than your aunt’s eggnog. Forget about those who want to dampen the festive spirit with their radical sensibilities; Jim’s here to deck the halls with laughter and remind us all that freedom of speech is the gift that keeps on giving!
