A seasonal must for all Birmingham Families is the Annual Holiday Film Festival at the Historic Alabama Theatre.
We think the Alabama Theatre is a pretty magical place year round, but when you add in the Christmas Decorations it’s a sight and feeling that you just can’t get anywhere else in the city. Hands down.

Most movies start at 7 p.m., but there are a few that start at 2 p.m. So check that time carefully!
Don’t forget about Santa at the Alabama! He’ll be there December 11th, 17th and 18th to coincide with their 2pm matinees. See our post here for more information.
All screenings will kick off with a 15-minute Christmas carol sing along, accompanied by the organ.
Tickets are $7, $6 for senior citizens and children and can be purchased online or at the door.
We hope to see you there!
