UCPAC is proud to present our 2025 Holiday season!

Whether your winter traditions include seeing The Nutcracker, listening to an orchestra’s sweet serenade, experiencing a multicultural concert embracing many genres and beliefs, or rewatching a favorite childhood tale come alive on the big screen, we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Tickets for UCPAC shows can be purchased online or by calling our Box Office at 732-499-8226. Continue your favorite traditions, or make new ones to treasure, by enjoying a holiday show at our historic Main Stage and modern Hamilton Stage. We’re bringing back our holiday tradition and screening The Muppets Christmas Carol and Cherish the Ladies returns for their 3rd performance at the Main Stage. Our partner, New Jersey Opera Theater, creates new magic through The Christmas Spider; a new opera based on the Ukrainian legend. Plus! We’re excited to include our affordable kids movie series this year, Popcorn & Pajamas, featuring two special screenings of The Polar Express at Hamilton Stage.

Go walking (and eating and drinking) in a winter wonderland!

Enjoy the holiday lights on Rahway’s Irving & Main Streets, and then warm up with a hot meal or beverage. UCPAC has you covered for snacks & drinks during the performance as well. Join us for some festive cheer! Our Cafe Bar off our main lobby is stocked with water, soda, beer, wine, candy, chips, and seasonal goodies at select performances.

Come early for dinner and drinks. There are many restaurants and bars in walking distance to our theatre! Visit Rahwayishappening.com for the full list of local eateries.
