Description

There really is no place like home for the Holidays.

Celebrations of Christmas, joyful and exciting wherever they occur, are even merrier when we are with the ones we love. It’s perhaps no surprise that so many favorite Christmas songs are about home and family. The peace, joy, generosity, confidence, optimism, and love that mark the worthiest of Yuletide celebrations are what we hope to nurture in our families and communities throughout the whole year. And happy memories of gathering at Christmas always fill the sweetest parts of our souls.

The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Orchestra at Temple Square, and Bells on Temple Square join with one of today’s brightest international singing stars, English tenor Alfie Boe, to celebrate being home for the holidays. This inspiring concert manifests the message of the Christmas season—that Christ came to earth to bring peace and joy to all people.
