DENVER - eTradeWire -- YOUR United States Air Force Academy Band proudly presents their 2026 holiday concert series, Holly & Ivy, on tour in communities along the Front Range, including FREE performances in Greely, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, and Aurora.

This year's Holly & Ivy will feature our premiere, active-duty professionals performing holiday favorites, through the decades, in anticipation of the Air Force's 80th Anniversary. The production kicks off with the sounds of Air Force beginnings and big band jazz by The Academy Band's, The Falconaires. Audiences will enjoy a variety of musical genres from holiday film soundtracks to the annual Sing-along, and more. We welcome families, friends, and fans of all ages for three nights of festive holiday celebration! Holly & Ivy is presented in gratitude and appreciation for the Greater Colorado Springs and front-range communities that give year-round support to the Academy, our active-duty members, faculty, and staff, as well as those who provide a second home for our cadets on their journey to becoming future officers and the next generation of leaders in the World's Greatest Air Force.
