The festival, now in its 28th year, takes place Monday, December 7 through Friday, December 11, 2015. Performances are scheduled each day from 9 a.m. – noon. Choirs, bands, ensembles and dancers from 30 elementary, middle and high schools will make holiday traveling more enjoyable for passengers during this busy holiday season. Students will perform throughout airport terminals in the baggage claim, ticket counter and rental car lobby areas.
This year, Tamarac Elementary School’s recorder ensemble will be performing on Monday, December 7, in Terminal One by the ticketing area and North Lauderdale Elementary’s Chorus will be performing in Terminal 2 Baggage Claim. On Tuesday, December 8, Discovery Elementary’s Chorus and Guitar will be performing by the the Terminal Four Baggage Claim. All performances will take place from from 9 a.m. to noon.
“We’re very proud of our longstanding partnership with the Broward County Aviation Department and the opportunity this annual event provides for our talented students and travelers alike,” said Joseph Luechauer, BCPS music and performing arts supervisor. “Passengers often join our students in singing and dancing, and even a few lucky ones are given the baton to become guest conductor.”
