If it hasn't already been played during the regular Christmas program, it's got to be Leroy Anderson's Sleigh Ride.

Radetzky March! It is used extensively in Continental Europe for encores and I think Gordon might agree with me on this choice.
-
It was my favourite at one time and it was an audience and MC pleaser.
Some of you may remember (how could we forget?) Instant Concert.. -

Okay...it's between two marches (which will please Gord to no end!!) which I played and love. The first one is "The Voice of the Guns" and the second one is "Washington Post", both which I still have memorized oddly enough!
P.S. For those who don't appreciate marches then my choice would be the "1812 Overture " which I played when in BTTB...Played under Boris Brott. We had real cannons too! It was a great closer...after the last chord was played by us, the fireworks started. This would be fun to do again.... -
I'm going to have to second Radetzky, especially if you can get the audience involved! A great traditional encore.

@gordon A James Bond Medley. Have always loved the theme songs from JB films
