About Wheaton College Christmas Festival

A beloved tradition for decades, Wheaton College Christmas Festival is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season.

Each year, the Wheaton College Conservatory of Music hosts three Christmas Festival concerts during the first weekend of December featuring Conservatory ensembles, and often with invited special guest vocalists and musicians. Audiences thrill to the musical delights of these Wheaton ensembles:

• Men's Glee Club
• Women's Choral
• Concert Choir
• Symphony Orchestra
• Symphonic Band
• Percussion Ensemble
• Harp Ensemble
• Gospel Choir

And every heart is warmed to hear the traditional candle-lit rendition of Silent Night echo through Edman Chapel. 

In more recent years, the Christmas Festival has been broadcast via American Public Television, allowing audiences around the country to enjoy this special event.
