Christmastown Concert Series

Get ready to jingle, giggle, and grin — 

Manuela Horn & The Slay Belles are bringing big laughs and holiday cheer to the stage.

Fronted by international comedian Manuela Horn, this high-energy trio combines powerhouse vocals, playful humor, and clever holiday parodies into one glitter-filled celebration.

It’s festive, it’s funny, and it’s fabulously over the top.

The Jewel Tones are an all-female, Motown-inspired vocal trio who perform hits by The Supremes, The Jackson 5, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Stevie Wonder and many more. These ladies deliver sparkling personality, stellar vocals, fun choreography, and a classic 1960’s look. They are a sparkling homage to the music of Motown, the definitive era of American artistry and soul. Learn more at MotownJewelTones.com and follow them on Instagram and Facebook @MotownJewelTones.

The Sugarplums have captivated audiences nationwide with their charming choreography, engaging interaction, and harmonies so sweet they may give you a toothache! Their performances feature all of your holiday music favorites, ranging from beloved classics like “White Christmas” as performed by The Drifters, to upbeat and lively renditions like “Jingle Bells” as performed by The Puppini Sisters and Michael Bublé.
