Tickets will now be available to buy in person from the Llangollen Tourist Information Centre for two Christmas peace concerts at the Llangollen Pavilion Hall on December 23.
Organisers of the events, at 12.30pm and 3.30pm, are being presented by a partnership of North Wales orchestra NEW Sinfonia and the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod.

Each show will end with a performance of the iconic festive film, The Snowman, with music performed live by NEW Sinfonia.
Robert Guy, of NEW Sinfonia said: “Tickets are selling fast but we had feedback that some people wanted to buy tickets in person.
"That’s why we are delighted that the Llangollen Tourist Information Centre has agreed to sell tickets for our Christmas event.
"These concerts are the talk of the town and there will be some fantastic surprises on Saturday, December 23.
"NEW Voices, our community choir, are already in full swing and loving rehearsals.
"The fact that refugees will be taking a lead role makes these concerts even more special just before Christmas.”

David Hennigan, a Board Member at the Llangollen Eisteddfod. said: “Since we announced our Christmas Peace Concert with NEW Sinfonia and NEW Voices, with refugees taking the lead, the response has been incredible.
"People across Denbighshire told us they wanted the Llangollen Eisteddfod to bring back our Christmas Concerts and we are pleased that our partnership with NEW Sinfonia has allowed us to present these extra, special peace concerts. We are delighted to now be able to offer the chance to buy tickets in person thanks to our friends at the Llangollen Tourist Information Centre as well as online.”
