Everything You Need to Get into the Holiday Spirit!
CSU Logo

Local alumni, parents, friends and Rams Fans are invited to join us for a holiday edition of Alumni Night Out. The evening features a Parade of Lights Preview with our very own CSU Marching Band followed by the 2018 Holiday Spectacular at the University Center for the Arts.

 The hometown parade preview gives those who aren’t able to make it down to Denver for the Parade of Lights the opportunity to still enjoy a phenomenal performance from our beloved marching band. The Preview will take place on the streets surrounding the UCA and is free to attend! And, as a special perk, Alumni Association members will receive a free cup of hot coffee or hot chocolate from the Human Bean Truck to enjoy during the show.

Following the Parade Preview, guests are encouraged to make a night of it at the 2018 Holiday Spectacular performance presented by the UCA. The family-friendly and popular annual presentation features performances from CSU ensembles and other special guests. This charming evening of traditional, secular, and sacred holiday music is a celebration of community, and includes something for all ages to enjoy.
