The committee of the Fife Nativity Play are delighted to announce that the enchanting Nativity Play is back this December, set against the stunning backdrop of the historic Lindores Abbey ruins.

With the generous support of Lindores Abbey Distillery, this beloved community event will take place between Friday 19th to Sunday 21st December, bringing the true spirit of Christmas to life.

With a new script written by director Chris Williams, this year’s production features an accomplished amateur cast comprising local children, adults, musicians, a baby, and even live animals, ensuring an authentic and heart-warming experience for all.

Operated on a not-for-profit basis by a dedicated team of enthusiastic volunteers, the Fife Nativity Play promises to be a highlight of the festive season.

Following last year’s overwhelming success, where each performance sold out, anticipation is high for this year’s event. Newburgh, a town renowned for its festive charm, will not only host the nativity but also showcase its famous 'wonky' Christmas lights, designed by local primary school children, adding to the magical atmosphere.

Ticket Information:

  • Adults: £11
  • Children (ages 5-15): £5
  • Children under 5: Free

Tickets can be purchased online through WeGotTickets, https://wegottickets.com/event/683031, or directly from the front desk at the distillery. Guests can also look forward to a selection of refreshments during the performances.
