Mariah Carey Brings Her Christmas Catalogue to Three UK Arenas

The seasonal run will bring one of music’s most enduring festive catalogues to audiences in Birmingham, London and Manchester.

Mariah Carey is bringing her Christmas spectacular to the UK this winter, with three major arena shows confirmed across Birmingham, London and Manchester.

The run begins at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on 27 November, followed by The O2 in London on 30 November and Manchester’s Co-op Live on 2 December.

The production will combine Carey’s festive catalogue with global hits including Fantasy, Hero, Emotions, Always Be My Baby and We Belong Together. At its centre will be All I Want For Christmas Is You, the track that turned Carey’s seasonal music into an annual cultural and commercial event.

Originally released on the 1994 album Merry Christmas, All I Want For Christmas Is You reached Number One in the UK for the first time in 2020 and has returned to the Top Five during every festive season since.

Now certified 10× Platinum in the UK, the song returns each year through streaming, seasonal playlists and social discovery, reaching new generations of listeners.

More than three decades after its release, its continuing chart presence shows that catalogue music is no longer static. In the streaming economy, the right track can behave like a major new release every year—and power an arena-scale live experience.
