29 Nov to 23 Dec 2026Seaside Arena, Waterfront Beirut
CHRISTMAS AROUND THE WORLD
A Christmas village and daily shows on the Main Stage at the Seaside Arena
Christmas Around the World turns the Seaside Arena on the Beirut Waterfront into a complete Christmas destination from 29 November to 23 December 2026. With more than three weeks on the calendar, it is the one to pick if you want to go more than once.
The heart of it is a Christmas Village laid out as a journey through eight places and their festive traditions: France, Italy, Germany, New York, Mexico, Finland, Japan and London. Each visitor can carry a festive passport and collect stamps from zone to zone. Around the zones you will find Santa’s House, the Aurora Dome, carnival games and rides, with snack packs to keep everyone going.
Theatrical shows play daily on the Main Stage, and the evenings carry a programme of movies, comedy and live music. Selected nights add concerts that are sold as their own ticket types on the event page, including Hiba Tawaji and Nancy Ajram.
The Village Pass starts from $5 and covers entry to the village. Shows, concerts, a festive Pilates session and extras such as a visit to Santa’s House, ride passes and snack packs are listed on the same page, so you can build the visit you want in one order. For seated shows you choose your exact seat on the map when you book.
Plan to arrive an hour before a showtime to enjoy the village first. Paid parking and valet are available on site, and traffic around the Waterfront is heavy in December, so a shared ride helps.
