Get ready for some winter fun at our Holiday Pops Concert!

We’re bringing the sounds of the season to life with sparkling favorites like Sleigh Ride, selections from The Nutcracker, and a sing-along-worthy Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. We’ll celebrate many traditions with the joyful Festive Sounds of Hanukkah and take a magical trip on The Polar Express. Rounding things out are the nostalgic glow of White Christmas and the lively A Christmas Carnival to send you home humming.

Whether you’re a holiday music superfan or just love a good winter celebration, this concert is a perfect way to kick off the season with warmth, joy, and a little extra sparkle.

Students from Dance Connections will add to the holiday spirit. Under the direction of Jennifer Aversa, Rebecca Dunphy, and Carly Faye, Dance Connections is comprised of students ages 7-18. They are service-based, non-competitive companies that perform at area nursing homes, festivals, fairs, schools, theme parks, basketball games, soccer games, fundraisers, and more.

Two performances of this concert will be offered on Saturday, December 20, 2025 at 10:30am and 1:00pm at the Jim Rouse Theatre. Tickets are available for purchase at columbiaorchestra.org or by calling 410.465.8777.
