Holly Cole: Swinging Christmas 2026 with Strings is a holiday concert in Montreal, presented at the Outremont Theatre on December 4, 2026. It makes a good evening out for anyone who wants a festive night that leans more toward a relaxed, stylish listen than a loud seasonal spectacle.
The show
Holly Cole performs a Christmas-themed programme with a string accompaniment. The songs are swinging holiday numbers, delivered in a vocal and chanson style, so the mood tends to be warm, intimate and musical rather than broad or boisterous. If you enjoy jazz-tinged standards and the textures of strings, the evening is built around exactly that.
The venue
The Outremont Theatre is the setting, in the Outremont borough of Montreal. Theatre seating suits a concert of this kind, where the voice and the strings are the focus. The venue's own arts listings page is the place to check the latest details for the evening.
Making a night of it
- Plan the concert as the centrepiece of an evening, and allow time to travel to Outremont from the rest of the city.
- Montreal offers plenty of restaurants and cafés around the city for a meal before or after the show.
- December is a festive time in Montreal, so the trip pairs naturally with other seasonal outings.
