Mason City Arlee Theater Celebrates Christmas with live music and more!
Havana-based group to play in Mason City Dec. 9, plus Polar Express Dec. 10-12

 

[December 03, 2021] 

On Thursday, December 9 the River City Opry will return to play at Mason City's Arlee Theater for a special Christmas concert. Based out of Havana, this eight-member local group specializes in country music but also plays 50s rock and a variety of other styles, and hopes to see attendees make good use of the Arlee's dance floor. The show begins at 6:30pm, with doors opening at 5:45. Concessions will be available, and tickets are $10 at the door (guests under 12 are free). Masks are required for entry.

It is worth noting that this coincides with the Reimagine Mason City Christmas celebration, where vendors will be present downtown to sell everything from homemade crafts to food and everything in between. This downtown fest will begin on Thursday afternoon and will run through Saturday.

On Friday, the Polar Express Experience will take over Arlee operations. Playing at 7 PM on Friday 12/10, and at 4 PM on both Saturday 12/11 and Sunday 12/12, kids and adults are invited to don their pajamas, have their ticket punched by The Conductor, meet the elves and chefs, and enjoy some great snacks while watching a presentation of the 2004 film "The Polar Express."

Tickets are $12 ($13 if purchased online), which includes admission, hot chocolate, popcorn, a cookie, and a small souvenir from the show. If attendees keep their eyes peeled, they may even see a special guest at the end of the show (but we won't spoil that surprise!). Advanced tickets are strongly encouraged, and can be purchased at the Arlee's concession stand during normal operating hours, as well as online at www.arleetheater.com.

The Arlee is located at 139 S. Main Street in Mason City, IL.
