Overview

Every Christmas movie is meant to put a smile on your face and a warm feeling in your soul but there's one that stands on a special pantheon: Home Alone. It's a heartwarming tale of family, Christmas and guerrilla warfare on home invaders. It also has one of the best film scores of all time, by the master himself, John Williams.

You can get into the festive spirit with a screening of this family favourite at the Sydney Opera House, with the iconic score performed live to screen by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. With three performances taking place from Friday, December 6, to Sunday, December 8, it's the perfect excuse to level up the annual rewatch tradition.

If it's been a while between screenings of Home Alone for you, allow us to refresh your memory. Kevin McAllister (played by Macaulay Culkin) is enjoying the childhood dream of getting his huge family home all to himself. One issue: It's Christmas, and his family left him behind when they departed for Paris. Oh, and there are two bungling burglars trying to break into the house.

Whether it's your first or 50th time seeing the film, watching it live at the Sydney Opera House with the Oscar®-nominated score performed live by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra will be a truly merry Christmas experience.

Home Alone Live in Concert is taking place between Friday, December 6 and Sunday, December 8 at the Sydney Opera House. For more information or to book tickets, visit the website.
