Christmas Concerts And Events Galore

There will be concerts and sing-a-longs and plays and many other kinds of Christmas activities in communities all around Utah during the next several weeks, and travelers are always welcome to join the fun.

Below we list some of the more popular events. See our website events section for a list of things happening where ever you may be.

Ogden City offers a Christmas Village with dazzling lights and live entertainment. Each cottage has its own theme and is modeled after Santa’s North Pole Village.

A Christkindlmarkt and Lantern Parade will be held at This Is The Place Heritage Park, located on the east side of Salt Lake City. It offers tantalizing food and live, festive holiday entertainment.

Temple Square is ablaze with lights and activities during the holiday season. Special activities are held ever day. The popular Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concerts are free but tickets go fast. Here's a schedule and details.

Concerts and Christmas music range from local favorite Kurt Bestor to Donny and Marie to Mannheim Steamroller and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Here's a rundown of musical offerings.

Everywhere you go you will see Christmas lights and decorations. Many of our state and national parks will have decorations and special activities. I enjoy wandering just to see what I can find.
