Trinity University is excited to announce and celebrate its weekend of holiday festivities. This year, the University is grateful for the opportunity to once again give its gift of holiday cheer, the Christmas Concert, to the local San Antonio community and the general public. Later that weekend, Trinity faculty, staff, students, and their family members are invited to attend Vespers and Christmas on Oakmont. For those who can’t make it in person, livestreaming will be available for the Christmas Concert and Vespers through Tiger Network.
Christmas Concert
Friday, December 1, 7:30-9 p.m.
Laurie Auditorium
Livestreamed on Tiger Network
Trinity student musicians will return to the stage to perform the University’s 29th annual Christmas Concert. The combined Trinity Choirs, Trinity Symphony Orchestra, Symphonic Wind Ensemble, and Handbell Ensemble will perform at this year’s concert. Pre-concert music will include informal performances by the Trinitones, the AcaBellas, the Trinity String Quartet, and the Trinity Flute Ensemble. The Trinity Jazz Ensemble performs holiday favorites in the lobby immediately after the concert. The Trinity community, as well as the general public, are welcome to attend.
The event is free, and tickets are not required.
Vespers
Sunday, December 3, at 6 p.m.
Margarite B. Parker Chapel
Livestreamed on Tiger Network
The Sunday following the Christmas Concert, Trinity faculty, staff, students, and their family members are invited to gather in the Margarite B. Parker Chapel for an annual Christmas service. The 1925 Mirage contains the first mention of the Christmas Vespers service, making the candlelit tradition nearly a century old.
The event is free, and tickets are not required.
Christmas on Oakmont
Sunday, December 3, immediately following Vespers
Oakmont Court
After Vespers, the Trinity community is invited to descend upon Oakmont Court, where the University president and leadership will greet faculty, staff, and students in front of their homes. A tradition that dates back at least to the 1970s, Christmas on Oakmont is a chance for Tigers to roam house to house while enjoying tasty treats, festive music, and good friends along the way.
