Join Zuzu's Petals for the most festive night of the year! Christmas with Zuzu is coming to the historic Folly Theatre, and it's shaping up to be more than just an evening out — it's a chance to give a piece of your heart to families who need it most.

The magic begins before you ever find your seat. Arrive early for our pre-concert reception, where the Folly transforms into a glowing Christmas market — twinkling lights, local vendors, and the smell of something warm in your hands. Wander over to our North Pole section for a cherished family photo with Santa, one you'll treasure long after the season ends. Enjoy festive food and drinks, and place a bid in our silent auction, filled with beloved memorabilia from your favorite KC teams — every bid a gift to someone you'll never meet, but whose Christmas you'll help make brighter.

Then, as the lights dim, settle in for a family Christmas concert that will give you chills — the stories of Christmas you grew up loving, told in a way that will steal your breath and warm your heart all at once.

Every ticket, every bid, every ornament purchased tonight goes toward something bigger than any of us. 100% of proceeds go directly to bringing Christmas to families living below the poverty line in our community — gifts under the tree, a warm dinner on the table, decorations to fill their homes with light, and a precious visit with Santa Claus for children who might otherwise go without. Because every child deserves to believe in the magic of Christmas, and every family deserves a night that feels like wonder.

Bring the ones you love. Dress Red Carpet Ready . Come ready to laugh, to cry a little, and to remember why this season means so much — because tonight, your joy becomes someone else's too.

Tickets are limited. Give a little magic this Christmas — for your family, and for a family who needs it most.
