$Hooray for Holly-Days! Holiday Magic from Broadway to the Big Screen\u2013and a Fond Farewell$

Roll out the red carpet and cue the carols—this year’s Peppermint Pops is a spectacular salute to the sounds of the season, brimming with Broadway sparkle and Hollywood cheer! Hooray for Holly-Days invites you to revel in a revue of heartwarming holiday hits from musicals and movies you know and love.
This year’s celebration is extra special as we honor our 65th Anniversary Season and bid a fond farewell to Maestro Peter Rubardt, whose final Peppermint Pops at the podium promises to be unforgettable. The stage will be filled with festive energy from the Meridian Symphony Chorus, holiday dancers, and of course, a symphony of seasonal favorites to make your spirits bright.
Stick around after the final bow for our beloved Cookies & Cocoa After-Party, where families can enjoy sweet treats and a visit from St. Nick himself! It’s a joyful evening of music, memories, and magic as we celebrate the legacy of Maestro Rubardt and 65 years of holiday tradition with the Meridian Symphony—honoring the past, lighting up the present, and ringing in the joy of the season.
