Innovation Academy
Alpharetta, GA

JCSO’s celebration of community, connection, and the joy of the holiday season. Timed to coincide with the Alpharetta Christmas Market, this family-friendly concert features beloved Christmas favorites, festive sing-alongs, and special performances by the Johns Creek Community Choir.

Beginning at 4:30 PM, the concert offers the perfect way to wind down a full day at the market—gather your family, find your seats, and settle in for an evening of warm, familiar holiday music performed live by the orchestra. It’s an inviting, relaxed experience designed for all ages, creating space to pause, enjoy, and share in the spirit of the season.

Welcoming, accessible, and filled with holiday cheer, from our family to yours.
