THE Parkway Cinema in Cleethorpes is hosting a festive musical spectacular with all the trimmings.

It's Bloomin' Christmas Again, the second annual Cleethorpes In Bloom Christmas Concert is taking place on Thursday, December 6.

The show will include performances of classic songs from the big West End musicals as well as rousing renditions of Christmas carols.

After the success of last year's inaugural event, the In Bloom committee is hoping for another 300-seat sellout, and tickets are disappearing fast.

Returning for this year's show are classical singers Leroy Vickers and Martin Jackson, and the Kingsway Printers Cleethorpes Band, while appearing for the first time are the Louth Male Voice Choir and 17-year-old soprano Jodie Watson.

Compere for the evening will be Compass FM presenter Richard Lyon.

Bob Callison, chairman of Cleethorpes In Bloom, said: "The first concert last year was such a success that we have decided to do it again, but this time with a slight twist.

"There will be songs from the big shows like Oklahoma, and then, in the second half, we are going to have the Christmas carols and there will be a chance for the audience to participate in the grand finale.

"The Kingsway Printers did a fantastic job last year and I'm delighted that the Louth Male Voice Choir will also be performing this year. This really is a show not to be missed."

Once again, proceeds from the event will go towards the Cleethorpes In Bloom campaign, which faces another busy year in 2013.

In addition to organising its own local gardening competition, Cleethorpes will be competing in the both the East Midlands and Britain In Bloom competition, as well as hosting the prestigious national awards ceremony for the first time.

Mr Callison said: "We are no different from any other charity and we are feeling the pinch in light of what is happening with the economy.

"We do need as much help as we can get because we have things like certificates to buy for the local competitions and we've got the big national competition coming to Cleethorpes, which will be a wonderful opportunity to market the resort to the whole country."
