It’s Time! Mariah Carey announces UK Christmas tour

US superstar Mariah Carey has announced a UK Christmas tour.

The pop singer, 57, best known for her 1994 festive chart-topper All I Want For Christmas Is You, will perform three shows in the UK this winter as part of her Christmastime tour. The limited run of shows includes nights in Birmingham, London and Manchester. She will also perform one night in Malta. The singer announced the tour on Instagram on Monday and said: “My Christmastime Tour is coming to the UK & Malta! “I can’t wait to celebrate with you all!” Carey will start her tour at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on Friday November 27 before heading to London’s O2 on Monday November 30. She will close the UK run at Manchester’s Co-Op Live on Wednesday December 02 before heading to Malta’s MFCC venue, near Valletta. She had a Christmastime In Las Vegas residency last year. The shows mark nearly a decade since Carey embarked on her 2018 All I Want For Christmas Is You Tour in the UK and Europe. She has had three number one UK singles including her 1994 festive classic, 1994’s Without You and her 2000’s rendition of Phil Collins’ Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now) which she released with Irish band Westlife. She is also known for her albums, 1993’s Music Box, 1995’s Daydream and her festive record, Merry Christmas, in 1994. Carey performed during the opening ceremony for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics. Tickets for her Christmastime Tour go on sale on Friday September 25.
