Gigantic sea of lights: Kassel celebrates the largest Christmas choir!
On December 8, 2024, the Kassel Auestadion experienced a spectacular Christmas event that brought together visitors from near and far. With 2,650 participants, people sang at the HNA Christmas Singing for the third time this year - a true festival of song and contemplation. The evening was opened by the well-known artists Nicole Jukic and Jeffrey Staten, who thrilled the audience with their powerful voices. Larger crowds were expected in advance and the event was sold out, as HNA marketing boss Sebastian Gerhold confirmed.
The spectators used their cell phone lights to create an impressive sea of lights and created an incomparable atmosphere in the stadium. “Every Year Again” and more modern hits such as “All I Want for Christmas” were sung passionately, creating a festive atmosphere. The musicians from the Kassel Army Music Corps also contributed to the musical diversity. With more contemplative songs, the audience was able to feel how important such shared experiences are and how they touched those present. The HNA Christmas singing took place in collaboration with Kassel Marketing and the city of Kassel, and the proceeds go to the Advent campaign, which supports people in need in the region rce-event.de reported.
A celebration for everyone!
The event was not only aimed at choral singing groups, but invited families, children and individuals alike to be part of this large choir. The festive event was a highlight in Kassel's event calendar and attracted numerous visitors. The combination of Christmas carols and the Christmas spirit created an unforgettable experience that appealed to people of all ages. Mayor Sven Schoeller, who also took over the patronage, emphasized the importance of the event, which at the same time strengthens the community and supports important social causes. The big HNA Christmas singing has established itself as a popular custom and is attracting more and more people to celebrate the festival of love together, as in previous years.
