## About

Circle City Orchestra plays a holiday concert in the Indiana State Museum on December 20 from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. The page marks admission free and says all ages. The museum prints this sentence: the performance is free to attend, and museum admission is required only if you want to experience Celebration Crossing through the building. Adult $23, senior $21, and youth $17 on the same page are museum admission, not a concert ticket, so the concert price is 0. Parking validation of $4 is mentioned with the admission purchase line. The concert sits inside the Celebration Crossing season, which the hub dates through January 3, 2027, so December 20 is 2026. The page was read through Cloudflare Browser Run and the 1–2 p.m. time is printed as a local clock time. Listeners who leave after the concert do not need a museum ticket under the wording on the page.
