The Music Center, L.A.’s premier performing arts destination, announces the performers for this year’s 64th annual L.A. County Holiday Celebration, a one-of-a-kind, free holiday spectacular that has been a Los Angeles holiday tradition since 1959.
Celebrating L.A. County’s vibrant diversity, creativity and energy, this year’s version of the two-time Emmy Award-winning event will feature 23 music ensembles, choirs and dance companies representing the county’s many neighborhoods and cultures.
As always, the program will delight an in-person audience with the free performance at The Music Center’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on Sunday, Dec. 24, from 3 to 6 p.m., as well as at-home audiences watching the live broadcast on PBS SoCal or streaming the show live on the http://pbssocal.org website.
