WZID is helping to make your holiday season merry and bright with all Christmas music, all weekend, now through Christmas Day!

Brought to you in part by Breeze Airways and by Labelle Lights at Labelle Winery Derry, experience magic at LaBelle Lights | Outdoor Holiday Light Display.

We’re back to regular programming Monday mornings (with some Christmas music sprinkled in through the day).

Get to know your favorite WZID on-air personalities as they share some of their holiday moments. They all love SANTA, and you can leave your messages for Saint Nick with our free WZID app, plus send us your Christmas greetings and join the fun.
