Ugly Sweater Holiday Pops
The Ugly Sweater Holiday Pops is an orchestral concert celebrating the holiday season through festive music and community fun. This event brings together families and music lovers to enjoy seasonal favorites performed by a live orchestra under the direction of conductor David Glover.
Attendees can look forward to a program featuring beloved holiday songs and sparkling orchestral arrangements. The highlight of the evening is the Ugly Sweater Contest where guests are invited to showcase their most outrageous holiday attire for a chance to win prizes. Families should plan to arrive early to enjoy a special pre-concert visit with Santa before the performance begins.
This concert is designed for audiences of all ages who appreciate live orchestral music and a joyous holiday atmosphere. It is a perfect opportunity to celebrate the season with friends and family in a welcoming and lively setting. We encourage everyone to dress in their most festive sweaters to fully participate in the theme. Secure your tickets soon to join us for this evening of musical cheer and holiday tradition.
