Holiday posts work because they tap into shared experiences, nostalgia, and the universal language of celebration. When music communities acknowledge special occasions, members feel seen and valued, increasing their sense of belonging. Inviting members to share their own traditions or memories also fosters personal storytelling, which deepens relationships and keeps engagement high.
By focusing on the intersection of music and holidays, you provide members with meaningful prompts that encourage participation. These posts can spark conversations, highlight cultural diversity, and remind everyone of the unique ways music shapes our celebrations. Ultimately, this approach turns a simple post into an opportunity to build community spirit and connection.

Choose a template that aligns with the upcoming holiday and your community's culture. Adjust the language to fit your group's voice or add specific details related to your audience. Post at peak times for your community and always respond to member shares or comments to keep the conversation lively. For global communities, consider rotating holiday posts to reflect various traditions throughout the year.
On all platforms, keep posts concise, use engaging visuals, and leverage features like polls or stickers when available. Monitor comments for respectful interaction, and pin holiday posts to keep them visible during the celebration period.
You can tailor the templates by highlighting sections that showcase your group's lineup, such as featuring a featured soloist, instrument group, or vocal harmony that’s emblematic of your sound. For example, during the winter holidays, you might feature your brass section in a ‘Festive Fanfare’ post, or share video clips of carols with rich SATB harmonies, encouraging your community to comment on their favorite arrangement.
Use the templates to tease or recap your holiday concert program. Create countdown posts featuring snippets or rehearsal clips of pieces like ‘Sleigh Ride’ or ‘Carol of the Bells’, and invite members to share their favorite moments from past performances. You can also run polls using the templates to let your audience vote on encore selections for your live streams.
Absolutely! Modify the templates to create ‘Meet the Musician’ segments, featuring fun holiday Q&As or short bios. For example, ask your guest conductor to share their favorite holiday music tradition, or have your percussionist talk about unique seasonal instruments like sleigh bells or chimes used in your setlist.
Many templates include prompts for audio or video sharing—use these to post rehearsal snippets, past performance clips, or even sheet music for caroling. Encourage your community to submit their own covers or sing-alongs, perhaps with a hashtag challenge, and feature these responses in follow-up holiday posts.
When sharing recordings or arrangements, ensure you have the appropriate performance or mechanical licenses, especially for modern holiday songs. For public domain carols, you can post freely, but always credit your arrangers and performers. Use the templates to educate your community about copyright and encourage sharing only authorized content.
Design posts that invite both groups to participate—such as a ‘Holiday Request Line’ where audience members suggest songs for livestreams, or behind-the-scenes glimpses for performers to share their holiday prep routines. Leverage the templates’ interactive features to create polls on favorite carols, prompt reflections on memorable holiday gigs, or collect stories about cherished seasonal performances.
