The Georgia Symphony Orchestra (GSO) invites audiences to kick off the holiday season in grand style at its much-loved Holiday Pops! concerts on Saturday, December 6 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, December 7 at 3:00 p.m. at the Marietta Performing Arts Center.
This joyful celebration of the season features festive favorites, heartwarming classics, and sparkling symphonic arrangements that capture the wonder of the holidays. From nostalgic melodies to merry sing-alongs, audiences of all ages will delight in the music and magic that have made Holiday Pops! a treasured community tradition.
GSO Music Director and Conductor Timothy Verville, along with Bryan Black, GSO Chorus Director, will lead the orchestra and more than 100 members of the GSO Chorus in performances of timeless favorites including The Christmas Song, Silent Night, Carol of the Bells, and selections from A Charlie Brown Christmas. At the conclusion of the concert, audience members will be invited to join in caroling alongside the chorus—a magical holiday experience for all.
Adding to the merriment, Santa Claus himself will make a special appearance! Guests are encouraged to dress in their favorite festive fare and bring their cameras.
“We’re always very excited to share great music every holiday season, and welcome everyone to join us for this Marietta and Cobb tradition!” said Timothy Verville, GSO Music Director and Conductor.
“The holidays have a way of bringing us together—families, friends, and neighbors joined by the simple joy of shared traditions. For generations, music has been at the heart of those moments, and nowhere is that more true than here in our community,” added Suzanne Tucker, GSO Executive Director.
This year’s Holiday Pops! concert is proudly supported by Wasserman Talent Solutions and Moore Colson, whose generous sponsorship helps bring this beloved tradition to life for the entire community.
Whether continuing a family tradition or starting a new one, Holiday Pops! is the perfect way to share the spirit of the season with friends, family, and neighbors.
The City of Marietta is the Presenting Sponsor of the GSO’s 75th Anniversary Season.
