Tickets are available at the door and are priced at $10.00 each. Children 5 and under will be admitted free of charge.
Traditional pieces such as 'From the Realms of Glory', 'All is Calm' (Silent Night), 'Let There be Peace on Earth', 'O Holy Night' and the classics, 'Sleigh Ride', 'A Christmas Festival', 'It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year' and 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'.
