Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra - First Coast Nutcracker

The Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra presents First Coast Nutcracker, their annual performance of Tchaikovsky's classic holiday ballet score. This is a chance to hear the full orchestral work, a cornerstone of the classical repertoire, performed live by the local symphony. The Nutcracker is a familiar piece for many, and the symphony’s interpretation often brings new detail to the enduring melodies. This performance takes place on Friday, December 18, 2026, at 8:00 PM in Jacoby Hall at the Jacksonville Center for the Performing Arts. Jacoby Hall is a traditional concert hall setting, suitable for a symphonic presentation. It's a good evening out for families or anyone looking for a seasonal classical concert.
