  3. Royal Ballet & Opera 2026/27: The Nutcracker

    At a cozy Christmas party, young Clara meets the mysterious magician Drosselmeyer, who gives her a nutcracker figurine. When the guests have all left and the house is asleep, Clara sneaks downstairs to look for the doll. But instead she finds Drosselmeyer, who takes her on a journey into a world full of magic: whimsical landscapes, snowdrifts and glittering confectionery. Here, toys come to life and the magic never ends. Peter Wright's production of this Christmas classic for young and old alike brings Tchaikovsky's astonishing orchestral score to life and adds glitter and glory to Julia Trevelyan Oman's historic staging.

How current is the programme?

Data is scraped multiple times a day directly from cinema websites. Cancellations, sold-out flags and programme changes usually surface within an hour.

Can I buy tickets here?

No — the Tickets button on each screening links directly to the cinema's own booking page. This site doesn't sell tickets and takes no commission.

What do OmU, OmeU, DF, OV, DCP, 35mm mean?

Language version: OmU = original audio with German subtitles, OmeU = original with English subtitles, DF = German-dubbed version, OV = original version with no subtitles, stumm = silent film (often with live accompaniment). Projection format: DCP = Digital Cinema Package, the digital standard in modern cinemas; 35mm / 16mm / 70mm = analogue film prints on physical stock.

What happens to screenings that have already started?

On today's view, screenings are hidden 30 minutes after their start time, so only reachable showtimes remain visible. A small note at the bottom shows how many have already begun.

Why this site?

Frankfurt has an unusually dense cinema scene — the DFF Filmmuseum, Astor, three arthouse houses, Pupille at the university, Programmkino Rex in Darmstadt, the Murnau in Wiesbaden — but no shared programme. This site lays every house onto one searchable day view.

How do push notifications work?
