NWI Orchestra Pops Concert

Join us for the Annual Holiday Pops Concert!

Yes, it's time to think about getting into the holiday spirit! Join your friends and family for the Northwest Indiana Symphony Holiday Pops Concert at 7:30 PM on Thursday, December 4. You only can you enjoy a mixture of classic and contemporary holiday music and the chorus-led carol sing-along, you can also try your luck at the games - because the concert is at the Hard Rock Casino, 5400 West 29th Avenue in Gary.

Tickets are $35 per person, checks or Zelle payable to Duneland Ski Club, Inc. The cut-off date is fast approaching - November 22!

We will meet at Aurelio's Pizza, 112 E. Ridge Road in Griffith (just east of Cline Avenue) at 5:30 PM before going to the Symphony. (Dinner and drinks are not included in the ticket price.) They have a wonderful menu, including a pizza buffet with "dessert pizzas".
