Sioux City's beloved holiday tradition, beneath the arches of the Cathedral of the Epiphany.

There's no holiday sound quite like it. The Symphony joins the Missouri River Choral Society and guest soloists beneath the soaring arches of the Cathedral of the Epiphany for Part I of Handel's Messiah, crowned by the immortal "Hallelujah" Chorus — a radiant Sioux City tradition and the perfect beginning to the season of light.
