Katherine Jenkins popped up at London's St. Pancras International on Friday to give people a live performance.

The Welsh mezzo-soprano performed her reimagining of Belinda Carlisle's number one song Heaven Is a Place on Earth, which features as the official soundtrack to Marks & Spencer's 2026 Home of Christmas campaign.

Performing beneath St. Pancras International's Christmas tree, which this year is inspired by a traditional German Christmas Pyramid, Jenkins surprised passengers and visitors with three songs, whilst staff from M&S' in-station store handed out festive treats to mark the occasion.

She says: “It was a real joy to see the smile on people’s faces as the performance got underway, and particularly special to sing my new track under the beautiful Christmas tree at St. Pancras International. There's something so wonderful about surprising people and bringing a piece of Christmas magic to their day, and it certainly felt like a fitting time and place to do that.”

Peter Martin-Jones, Head of Marketing at St. Pancras International, says: “Music has always been part of the magic of St. Pancras International, and never more so than at Christmas. We’re thrilled Katherine has brought her extraordinary voice to the station for this special surprise performance, hot on the heels of the M&S Christmas advert, and we hope her performance under our tree has brought festive cheer to many."
