Hershey Symphony Rings in the Season with Holiday Spectacular

Tickets are on sale now for the Hershey Symphony Orchestra’s annual Holiday Spectacular on Friday, December 12, 2025, at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, December 13, 2025, at 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The musicians will bring the holiday spirit to the Hershey Free Church and perform beloved favorites and some exciting new arrangements under the direction of Maestro Gregory Woodbridge.

“Once again we bring you music in a variety of styles and arrangements that showcases our orchestra and puts you in the holiday spirit,” said Maestro Woodbridge. “Mannheim Steamroller, Tran-Siberian Orchestra, Andy Williams, Perry Como, and Nat King Cole are just some of the artists who have given us magical musical memories of the season, and we are delighted to feature them and a few others at this concert.”

General admission tickets are $30, and are available here. A $2 per ticket processing fee applies. Advance tickets are highly recommended. 

Audience members are encouraged to bring non-perishable food to the concerts to donate to the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank. “The hunger crisis in our region continues to worsen every day as more people are unable to put food on the table,” said Hershey Symphony Orchestra Executive Director Susan Cort. “As we come together as a community to celebrate the season through music, we can also come together by donating food to those in need.”

Items that may be donated include:

  • Peanut butter
  • Pop top cans of soup, stews, vegetables (corn, green beans, peas, beans), fruit, tuna, chicken, raviolis, Spaghetti-o’s, spaghetti and meatballs, etc.
  • Pasta sauce and noodles (particularly spaghetti and macaroni)
