According to regular poster—and crack euphonium player—Luke:
"Tuba Christmas is a city -wide gathering of euphonium and tuba players. Players gather in the morning and practice familiar Christmas songs, which are then performed in a public pla ce such as a local mall, or public park. The best part is, Tuba Christmas travels all over the country, allowing tuba player AND euphonium players from across the United States a chance to show off their chops. Players are encouraged to wear their best Christmas sweater, and decorate their instrument in a festive manner."
A list of cities featuring Tuba Christmas may be found here:

Luke closed by adding that the sound is "powerful, dark, and, majestic."
Behold Tuba Christmas!

Boy this article sucks, who wrote it? Whoever they are, they used "players" too often. I think this person's android phone should be taken away so they may never write again.
Thanks for the post in all seriousness!
My sister was quite taken by the idea of Tuba Christmas after reading the post. She may be seeking one out in the Seattle area.
