Watch Barbie at the Royal Albert Hall — with an all-female orchestra!

Pink outfits at the ready… Barbie is coming back to the big screen. And if you think that nothing can top the magic of its original run — the dressing up, the press tour outfits, Barbenheimer! — just wait till you hear what the Royal Albert Hall has up its sleeves.

On Wednesday 5 March, the iconic venue hosts Barbie The Movie: In Concert. Head to its opulent auditorium to see the record-shattering film on a huge HD screen, with live accompaniment from the Barbie Land™ Sinfonietta. Conducted by Macy Schmidt, this all-female orchestra will perform Barbie’s score, plus all the bangers from its soundtrack, for an extra-special viewing experience.
