Each year, The Oak Ridge Boys’ Christmas tour plays to packed houses across America.

The two-hour extravaganza features a mixture of traditional and contemporary songs — including religious, romantic, and fun holiday tunes — as well as the group’s classic Country-Pop hits like” Elvira”, “American Made” and “Thank God For Kids”. The full-production show features beautiful sets, falling snow, and a visit from Santa Claus, and it includes songs from the Oak Ridge Boys’ five bestselling Christmas CDs.

Once area residents have seen The Oak Ridge Boys’ Christmas show, they will plan to make it a family tradition. It’s a Christmas treat for children of all ages.

The Oak Ridge Boys have one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. Their string of hits includes the pop chart-topper “Elvira”, as well as “Bobbie Sue”, “Dream On”, “Thank God For Kids”, “American Made”, “I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes”, “Fancy Free”, “Gonna Take A Lot Of River” and many others. They’ve scored 12 gold, three platinum, and one double platinum album, plus one double platinum single, and had more than a dozen national No. 1 singles and over 30 Top Ten hits.

The four-part harmonies and upbeat songs of the Oak Ridge Boys have earned them Grammy, Dove, CMA, and ACM awards and garnered a host of other industry and fan accolades. Every time they step before an audience, the “Oaks” bring three decades of charted singles and 50 years of tradition to bear on a stage show widely acknowledged as among the most exciting anywhere.

This Christmas show is brought to Van Wert in part by T-102.1 FM, Van Wert Federal Savings Bank and Kenn-Feld Group/John Deere. This year’s NPAC 2012-2013 season sponsor is StateWide Ford Lincoln of Van Wert.
