freaturing Grant Gershon, Conductor

Usher in the holiday season with an incredible afternoon of music, beauty, and festive spirit at the spectacular Walt Disney Concert Hall. Join us for one of Southern California’s most treasured holiday traditions as the Grammy-nominated Los Angeles Master Chorale presents its beloved Festival of Carols, a heartwarming celebration that has delighted audiences for generations.

Under the direction of acclaimed conductor Grant Gershon, the Master Chorale’s 62 extraordinary singers are joined by Youth Chorus LA, piano, and organ to fill the hall with glorious sounds of the season. From beloved traditional carols to stirring choral masterpieces and joyful holiday favorites from around the world, each selection is brought to life with breathtaking artistry in one of the finest acoustic spaces ever created.

The stunning architecture of Frank Gehry’s Walt Disney Concert Hall provides a magnificent setting for the performance, where every note resonates with warmth, wonder, and holiday cheer. This inspiring concert captures the joy, hope, and magic that make the season so special—and, as has become part of the tradition, keep an eye out for a possible appearance by a certain red-suited, white-bearded guest!

Your holiday outing includes East Terrace seating for the matinee performance and time for lunch on your own at the lively Anaheim Packing District, offering a variety of dining choices in a charming historic setting. A limited number of upgrades to Orchestra seating may be available for an additional $16 per person.

Celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with an uplifting musical experience that will leave your heart full and your spirits soaring.
