Elf in Concert

About

Elf in Concert pairs the Christmas comedy Elf with a live performance of its orchestral score by the Hawaii Symphony Orchestra, part of the orchestra's Films in Concert series at the Neal S. Blaisdell Concert Hall in Honolulu. The orchestra plays while the film is screened, so it suits families with older children as well as adults who grew up on the movie. This listing is the Saturday evening performance on December 19, 2026, which the orchestra's season listing places at 7:00 pm. A Sunday matinee on December 20, at 2:00 pm in that listing, has its own entry on this calendar. A conductor, a running time and age guidance are not printed on the pages we could read; the orchestra's website does have an Attending with Children guide and a Parking and Directions page worth checking. The ticketing page was blank when we read it, so no prices are confirmed here. Use the Buy Tickets link at myhso.org for current seating and pricing. The hall is at 777 Ward Avenue, Honolulu. The same night on this calendar, the Kalani Peʻa Hawaiian Christmas show is at the Hawaii Theatre. The orchestra's other December concert is Hapa Holiday Extravaganza on December 16, and its next listing after Elf is The Sounds of Ravel and Rosalía on January 8.
