The Hallé Pops - world-famous music where the giants of the classical world meet the icons of stage and screen. These are events planned with one word in mind - entertainment. No-one else offers you a greater choice of music, performed with the Hallé's award-winning panache and five-star quality.

We offer concerts that will evoke sultry Spanish nights and an idyllic English spring. We'll thrill you with James Bond, transport you to other worlds with John Williams and have you singing along at a real Christmas party!

There's an invitation to a glamorous Viennese ball, VIP tickets to the best of Broadway and an American extravaganza. If you're in the mood for a nostalgic treat, there's a night dedicated to the world's most popular form of entertainment - TV.

Our series starts in October with a concert that celebrates the triumph of science in all its forms. Let your imagination run wild in this concert filled with fantasy and magic, featuring everything from monsters to gods with a bit of space travel thrown in to get your heart racing. In November, you can relax, close your eyes and imagine the warmth and romance of Spain. Rodrigo's most famous guitar concerto, Bizet's Carmen and Ravel's Boléro join a host of other Iberian favourites.

December with the Hallé is all about celebration. Carl Davis invites you and the whole family to sing along to a spectacular programme of Christmas favourites. The Hallé Christmas Carol concerts are legendary, and you can celebrate even more with Ultimate Bond and A Broadway Bonanza. In January you can see in the New Year in traditional Viennese style.

In 2008 you can look forward to the music of John Williams, an evening of classics and songs with Sir Thomas Allen, an American tour de force with our favourite New Yorker, Carl Davis and a real telly treat - 40 years of your favourite TV themes.

Join us for the Hallé Pops - exciting music, thrilling concerts and pure unadulterated fun!
