Everyone should prepare to attend or perform in freezing temperatures and be conscious about inclement weather.\u201d<\/p>\n According to the release, this year\u2019s theme is \u201cRockin\u2019 Around Christmas Village.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSchool choirs and other performing groups are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday and Saturday (November 29th through December 22nd) on the Ogden Amphitheater stage,\u201d the release said. \u201cGroups can sign up for 30-minute increments, and large groups can sign up for more than one slot. Time slots are in the evening at 6 p.m., 6:45 p.m., and 7:30 p.m. Performances can range in genre and group size but must be largely based on holiday themes. These scheduled times are first-come, first-served.\u201d<\/p>\n The release adds that the city does help with some of the needs of performers.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Ogden Amphitheater will provide PA\/mics, aux input, choir risers (when requested) and stage d\u00e9cor,\u201d the release said. \u201cThe performing group will be responsible for all other needs. Each group should prepare to perform in freezing temperatures and snow. Please dress according to the weather. Some inclement weather may cause delays or cancellations.
