JACKSON HEIGHTS — Singers can belt out tunes from around the world in the annual caroling event through the streets of Jackson Heights on Saturday.

The sixth annual Jackson Heights Winter Holiday Sing-A-Long meets Dec. 20 at 7 p.m. in front of Cassidy's Ale House, on the corner of 31st Avenue and 75th Street.

The repertoire includes holiday songs from all faiths and languages, including American Sign Language, which will be led by students and faculty from the Lexington School for the Deaf.

Dress in your most festive outfit and bring a flashlight and any acoustic instruments, including guitars and bells, as the group walks up 75th Street to 32nd Avenue. The event is family-friendly, but children under 16 are encouraged to attend with an adult, organizers said.

The caroling continues to 77th Street, looping back toward 32nd Avenue, and will traverse around the neighborhood until 10 p.m — when the singing continues inside Cassidy's.

Parking is available inside the parking lot on 31st Avenue.
