Merrill Auditorium

Program

Artists, programs, and dates are subject to change. 

This beloved Maine holiday classic brings a delightful combination of nostalgic traditions and unexpected surprises. Experience perennial favorites like the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s Messiah and “Sleigh Ride” (performed in a distinctly unique PSO fashion—and yes, pun intended for those in the know), new traditions like The Maine Christmas Song, and special selections heard for the first time each year. 


PLEASE NOTE: This performance is a Family Friendly program of about 60 minutes with no intermission. If you would prefer to attend the full length program, please choose another performance time from the options here.
