The plan

The North Carolina Symphony and Raleigh Youth Choir come together for holiday favorites in a hall dressed in candlelight. David Glover conducts. The combination of orchestral sound and young voices gives this concert its character; it is the Symphony’s own seasonal production, with both afternoon and evening performances.

Make the most of it

Performances take place December 22 and 23 at 3pm and 7:30pm. Guests are invited to arrive early to visit Santa. If you are hosting family, choose the concert first and leave space around it for a relaxed meal instead of trying to fit in another timed activity.

Booking your visit

Tickets are sold for a specific performance and seat. Compare the final total for your chosen date before booking. Use the dated calendar entries on this page to save the exact start time; separate performances on the same day need separate bookings.
