If sitting around the house listening to recorded versions of “Deck the Halls” and “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” isn’t your idea of a festive Christmas experience, there are options if you prefer your fa-la-las live.

Whether you’re into Celtic, pop, rockabilly or R&B, you have choices. Many of them.

From holiday mainstays Trans-Siberian Orchestra, to rarer sights such as Ronnie Spector and Casting Crowns, a slew of diverse artists will trot their brightest holiday wares to Atlanta this season.
