The Snowman and the Snowdog. Big screen. Live orchestra. Everyone welcome — dogs included!
Experience the magic of The Snowman and the Snowdog on the big screen with its beautiful score performed LIVE by a professional orchestra, in a very special event supporting Battersea Dogs & Cats Home.
And there's a rather unusual twist…
You can bring your dog!
No dog? No problem! You absolutely don't need to bring a dog to join us. Whether you're a family looking for a magical live orchestral experience, a fan of The Snowman and the Snowdog, a dog lover without a dog of your own — or you'd like to bring your four-legged best friend — everyone is welcome.
Even better, thanks to ManyPets, Founding Partner of Paws at the Pictures, the event costs are being underwritten, meaning 100% of ticket sales will support Battersea
What to expect
At the heart of this special 45-minute concert is Raymond Briggs' magical The Snowman and the Snowdog, shown on the big screen with its beautiful score performed live by outstanding professional musicians.
Plus, enjoy the Great Dog Medley — an exclusive orchestral medley celebrating some of music's most memorable dogs — a festive audience singalong of the 12 Dogs of Christmas, and plenty of canine-inspired surprises.
And if you do have a dog who would enjoy the experience, they're invited too!
Paws at the Pictures is the world's first live orchestra cinema experience where dogs can enjoy the performance alongside their humans, created by Carrot Productions in support of Battersea.
Dog numbers are strictly limited, so if you'd like to bring yours, please make sure you purchase a £5 dog ticket when booking.
Coming without a dog? You don't need a dog ticket — simply book your human tickets and come along!
This is more than a magical afternoon or evening of film and live music. 100% of ticket sales from Paws at the Pictures will support Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, helping Battersea continue to be there for dogs and cats who need them.
This has been made possible thanks to ManyPets, Founding Partner of Paws at the Pictures, an event supporting Battersea, whose support is enabling all ticket proceeds to benefit Battersea.Times: 2pm, 4pm, 7pm
