The Glow of Christmas

The Glow Returns! An intimate string concert, an all-new holiday program, and a room aglow with Christmas magic. Limited seating. The Glow of Christmas returns to The Barn at Madison—and we can’t wait to share the magic all over again! For our second year, we’re welcoming back The Holly Duo, the same talented string duo with an entirely new holiday program. Whether you joined us last Christmas or are discovering the glow for the first time, a beautiful evening awaits. Begin your visit with a stroll through twinkling Christmas lights and our illuminated walk-through tunnel. Then settle inside the Barn, where thousands of softly glowing candles set the scene for an intimate, 60-minute live performance. Inspired by the warmth of an old-world chamber concert, this experience brings you close to the musicians in a setting that feels personal and unhurried. With a deliberately limited audience and open seating, every seat offers a lovely place to take in the sights and sounds of the evening. It’s an invitation to slow down, share a little wonder, and enjoy the nostalgia and romance of Christmas—with someone you love, a favorite friend, or anyone who could use a little holiday magic. ✨ Your evening includes: • A professional string duo performing an entirely new holiday program • An intimate concert setting with limited seating • Thousands of glowing candles and festive surroundings • Christmas lights and an illuminated walk-through tunnel to enjoy before the music begins • Complimentary light refreshments Two concerts each evening.
