This Halloween-themed concert will feature pieces, such as excerpts from Danny Elfman’s “Nightmare Before Christmas” and Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” among other holiday favorites.
All Mercer students can attend the show for free by presenting their student IDs at the door. Mercer students will be admitted on a first come, first serve basis while seating lasts.

There will be a special ticket price for alumni and their families. In order to redeem the discounted ticket prices, alumni must use the code “Mercer Alum” when purchasing concert tickets. Tickets can be purchased online or at the box office.
