SSE Airtricity, The SSE Arena, Belfast and M & J Pantos have combined forces to announce Northern Ireland’s newest and biggest Christmas pantomime, THE SPECTACULAR ALADDIN, to be produced at The SSE Arena, Belfast in December 2017.

Take a journey to Old Peking and meet old Widow Twanky and her poor son Aladdin. Times are tough but Aladdin's life is dramatically changed when he falls in love with the most beautiful woman in the Kingdom, the Princess Jasmine. Enter the most evil baddie in the Kingdom, Abanazer. Will the evil Abanazer destroy Aladdin's dreams to get rich and marry the Princess? Will the Genie ever get his freedom? Will you and your family have the best time of Christmas 2017? There’s only one way to find out… Book your tickets and join us on this magical carpet ride to a whole new world.

We are very excited to announce that singer Jake Carter will be taking on the role of Aladdin! Jake joins The X Factor's Rhydian Roberts who will play the Evil Abanazer and Ross Anderson Doherty as the Genie. Q Radio will also bring an exciting new dimension to the Panto experience in the form of a warm-up disco before each show!
