“Hauntcert promises to be an evening of cultural classics that captures the playful spirit of Halloween in an unforgettable way,” Alex Gartner, Artistic & Executive Director, said. “We wanted to provide the community with a fun, festive event with engaging activities that both young and old can enjoy.”

Hauntcert has a run time of approximately 40 minutes and will feature additional activities designed with families in mind. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., children are invited to go trick-or-treating in the concert venue at stations hosted by PCC’s community partners. There will also be time for a photo meet-and-greet with your favorite featured performers.

All audience members are encouraged to dress up in a fun and family-friendly fashion, though participants should refrain from using masks or prop weaponry. During a special part of the concert, children will have the chance to showcase their costumes from the stage and participate in the music-making magic alongside PCC’s singers.
