First Light the World with Love Christmas Concerts run Dec. 6-11
ORLANDO, Fla. (Nov. 29, 2021) – For so many, the Christmas season is about beloved hymns and carols, goodwill toward all, and of course, gathering together to spread light and love.
ICON Park is putting that on full display for a week this December with the Light the World with Love Christmas Concerts.
From December 6 to 11, the entertainment destination will be hosting performances from local high school, church, and community choirs nightly from 5 through 8 p.m. Each night, four choirs will perform traditional Christmas songs in front of ICON Park’s holiday tree. There will also be Christmas-inspired videos, and emcees will lead the crowd in singing some Christmas carols themselves. To close out the evening, professional performers will take the stage each night.
But that’s not all. To really drive home the reason for the season, the concerts will spotlight local charities. Attendees will be invited to donate via virtual giving machine at www.lightolando.acahand.org to help make a difference.
“At ICON Park, we’re all about showing locals and visitors alike what Orlando is all about,” said Chris Jaskiewicz, president and CEO of ICON Park. “The Light the World with Love Christmas Concerts are a perfect way for us to show off the talent here in Orlando, as well as to give back to the community we care about so much—plus, who couldn’t use a dose of the Christmas spirit?”
