All we want for Christmas just arrived.
On Friday, Aug. 2, pop superstar Mariah Carey announced she’s heading out on her annual Christmas tour starting in early November.
This year’s iteration, which she’s dubbed ‘The Christmas Time Tour,’ includes a trio of New York and New Jersey stops.
First up, the “Shake It Off” singer will drop into Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Friday, Dec. 13. After that, she’ll belt to the rafters at Belmont Park, NY’s UBS Arena on Sunday, Dec. 15 and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Tuesday, Dec. 17.
According to Carey’s Instagram, this 20-concert trek will be her “biggest holiday tour to date” in celebration of the 30th anniversary of her “Merry Christmas” album which features the stone-cold holiday classic “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”
That’s not all, though.
The 55-year-old songstress also has 13 ‘Celebration of Mimi Live in Las Vegas’ residency concerts at the Dolby Theater at Park MGM from now until January 2025.
At those shows, Carey will skip the Christmas classics and perform tracks from her chart-topping 2005 album “The Emancipation of Mimi” which included chart-topping hits like “Shake It Off,” “It’s Like That” and “We Belong Together.”
If these sound like the shows for you, tickets are available as soon as today.
