## About

Presented in the acoustically renowned Sacramento Memorial Auditorium, Home for the Holidays is an inspiring symphonic and choral celebration. Conducted by Dr. Donald Kendrick, the 175-voice Sacramento Choral Society joins forces with a 45-piece symphony orchestra to perform classic holiday carols, sacred anthems, and lively winter pops. The family-friendly concert features a candlelight processional, an audience carol sing-along, festive puppetry, and a guest appearance by Santa Claus.

• Nursing & Rest Spots: Ground-floor restrooms with baby changing counters and wide foyer lounges with upholstered seating.
• Age Suitability: Recommended for children ages 5 and up, parents, and grandparents.
• Sensory Tips: Warm, rich choral sound and gentle candlelight; the interactive audience sing-along encourages kids to sing along with the orchestra.
