TubaChristmas- Bel Air, MD Dec. 17, 2023

Post by Heavy_Metal »

Posting for my friends Jim (a.k.a big1096) and Cheryl:

Merry TubaChristmas!


The 15th annual TubaChristmas in Bel Air is scheduled for Sunday December 17, 2023. This year marks the 50th annual TubaChristmas season since the inception in New York City, in 1974! There will be special merchandise available for purchase at the registration table, while supplies last!


I am also very happy to announce that we have secured sponsorship for our TubaChristmas event through the Town of Bel Air! They will be covering the costs of the venue and personnel to make this show possible!


Please join us this year and make it our best TubaChristmas yet! We anticipate a huge crowd, a festive concert, and a wonderful playing experience. We would love to have you, as well as any of your tuba/euphonium playing friends, neighbors, or family members!


Festively yours,

James Laisure

Cheryl Wald
