The Sights and sounds of christmas

December 2 & 4  |  7pm

This year our Sarasota Christmas production team, including adults, students, and children, will join together to bring you an all-new enjoyable and meaningful start to the Christmas season featuring your very favorite Christmas songs and carols.

You’ll be invited to join in and sing along! The words and Christmas scenes will be projected above the performers.

After the music, enjoy free hot chocolate and coffee, and if you choose, you can purchase some goodies from several local food trucks and vendors such as funnel cakes and kettle corn.

Parents, we will also have areas set up for children to decorate their very own Christmas Ornament to take home with them and another area set up to decorate their own Christmas Cookie! There is no cost for these activities.
We’ll be playing some Christmas movies on the big screens both inside and outside.
Be sure to get your Christmas photo in front of the Giant Christmas Tree! It’s a great way to share the season with friends and family on your social media.

And, as a special treat, we will bring our Sarasota Christmas Parade Float out and you’ll hear our Children and Students sing what they will be doing in the Parade.

No tickets or reservations are required. Just come enjoy! The musical production will last about 40 minutes, but if you arrive early, you’ll be treated to some of your Christmas favorites being played by our Orchestra!

If it rains, we have room and are prepared to do the entire production indoors including the activities like ornament and cookie decorating! Should we have some wet weather, still come and enjoy a great start to your Christmas season.

Who is Sarasota Christmas?

The team that brings you Sarasota Christmas each year is made up of people from all walks of life. While you will see many of these people in the production, there are even more you will not see. In addition to singers, actors, and instrumentalists, many others work behind the scenes on decorations, technology, media production, hospitality, safety and security and other areas you may not hear about. As a church, we are committed to serve and pray for our community, and we love working together to share the message of Christmas.
