Ring in the season with the Atlanta Gay Men’s Chorus at our 45th Annual Holiday Show — and join us in celebrating 30 festive years at the breathtaking Cathedral of St. Philip! This year, we’ll take you on a joyous musical journey around the world, featuring beloved classics like Carol of the Bells, Deck the Hall, Feliz Navidad, and Silent Night. Audiences will also be treated to unforgettable gems, including the vibrant Nigerian carol Oba Se Je and Franz Biebl’s timeless Ave Maria — hailed as one of the most beautiful works ever written for men’s voices.
Presented by the Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces, this two-day event will take place in picturesque Piedmont Park in the heart of Midtown. Event goers are invited to sip on hot cocoa, listen to holiday music, and stroll through the park while exploring gift items from approximately 175 artists including painters, photographers, sculptors, glass blowers, leather and metalworkers, jewelers, and crafters. Holiday trees and wreaths will also be available for purchase. The Piedmont Holiday Gift Market is free to attend for all ages and welcomes dogs.
