Grand Classic Ballet is a touring ballet ensemble that performs across Germany each year during the Christmas and winter season. Its repertoire centres on the classical masterpieces "Swan Lake" and "The Nutcracker", set to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. For the 2025/26 season the tour grew to around 181 performances in 48 cities. Some venues feature a large LED wall used as a living stage backdrop to create a distinctive visual experience. The ensemble stages these traditional narrative ballets in its own production aimed at a wide audience.
