Glastonbury sensation James B Partridge bringing Christmas Assembly sing-along to Bournemouth

A Dorset-born music teacher and one of the most unlikely internet sensations is set to bring festive joy to Bournemouth Pavilion this winter.

James B Partridge, who has amassed more than three million TikTok likes for his nostalgic school assembly performances, will lead a feel-good sing-along of Christmas classics in his brand-new live stage show: The Big Christmas Assembly.

What began as a fun lockdown hobby - sharing heartfelt renditions of primary school favourites - has grown into a nationwide phenomenon. James’s videos have struck a chord with viewers of all ages, transporting them back to childhood with songs everyone remembers from their school days. Now, he’s taking that magic on the road.

Fresh off the back of his headline-making appearance at Glastonbury Festival over the weekend, James is set to return to his home county to deliver a festive night of fun and unfiltered festive cheer.

Audiences can expect to join in on seasonal school assembly classics like “Away in a Manger”, “Little Donkey”, and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing”, all reimagined with the charm, humour, and heart that has made James a social media sensation.

Suitable for ages 14 and over (under-18s welcome with an adult), it promises a night of festive nostalgia, community spirit, and big-hearted fun.
