The first Carols by Candlelight was in 1938. This souvenir program was produced for the event's 10th anniversary.
3KZ announcer Norman Banks, concerned about those spending Christmas alone, had the idea for an event where the community could gather to sing carols.
Carols by Candlelight successfully transitioned to television, but the strongly religious character of the music has been toned down in recent decades in favour of Christmas-inspired pop songs.
