Holiday Tunes in the Terminal

Travel, and the places it happens, often implies a certain level of frenetic energy — long lines, delayed flights, and jittery nerves. But for one week, the Dane County Regional Airport offers a melodic diversion, turning the south end of the terminal into a stage for musicians of all ages from around south central Wisconsin. Holiday Tunes in the Terminal is a chance to see the airport not just as a transit point, but as a venue. Catch the daily performances if you’re passing through, or head over specifically for the Community Sing-Along (the week's final event, at 11 a.m. on Dec. 20) to properly ring in the season. Find the schedule below and updates at msnairport.com. (Pro tip: There's also a new exhibition of paper fashion works from Madison Reading Project's annual Read(y) to Wear event on display in the Art Court.)

media release: Holiday Tunes in the Terminal showcases performers from throughout South Central Wisconsin. Delight in the sights and sounds of the season with featured, complimentary performances from Monday, December 15 through December 19, 2025 at the south end of the terminal. The community is also invited to participate in the Holiday Tunes in the Terminal Sing-along on Saturday, December 20 at 11 a.m.
