The record consists of stunning renditions of seasonal staples as well as show-stopping original international collaborations, living up to the promise of its title and speaking to audiences around the globe. More details will be announced in the coming weeks.
“The holidays have taken on a new meaning for all of us over the past couple of years. We cherish this time of year more than ever. However, we wanted to spread this message as far as possible. That’s why we decided to bridge the gap between cultures and genres in a way we never have before. Now, we can’t wait to see all of you on the road,” Scott Hoying of Pentatonix said.
Reaching fans everywhere, Pentatonix will also premiere the group’s fifth Disney special, Pentatonix: Around the World for the Holidays, streaming exclusively on Disney+ later this fall. The group, already having attracted 26 million viewers during their previous nationally televised programs, is back on the screen in this groundbreaking cinematic music experience. The special utilizes pioneering XR and AR Visual Technologies to tell a different holiday tale highlighted by a heartfelt script, riveting acting, and, of course, heavenly performances. It follows the group as they seek inspiration for their annual holiday LP after their manager accidentally locks them in an enchanted mailroom. Thanks to a little old-fashioned Disney magic, they traverse the globe to uncover new holiday traditions and gleam inspiration directly from listeners.

‘The Ghosts of Christmas Eve – The Best of TSO & More’ comes to Mohegan Sun Arena for two shows
Multi-platinum, progressive rock group Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) will bring its highly-anticipated Winter Tour to Mohegan Sun Arena for two spectacular shows on Wednesday, November 23rd at 3:00pm and 8:00pm.
Tickets are $99.50, $89.50, $69.50, $49.50, and $29 and go on sale Friday, September 16th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office Beginning Saturday, September 17th, subject to availability.
A limited number of specially priced $29 tickets will be available for one week or while supplies last.
After its first year off the road in more two decades, TSO made a triumphant return to touring in 2021 with a 25th anniversary celebration of “Christmas Eve and Other Stories.” For 2022, TSO brings a completely updated presentation of the unforgettable, multi-generational holiday tradition, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve,” to 60 cities across the nation.
A product of TSO’s late founder Paul O’Neill and his wife Desi and based on TSO’s multi-platinum CD and TV special, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve,” the Rock Opera features such enduring fan-favorites as “Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24,” “O’ Come All Ye Faithful,” “Good King Joy,” “Christmas Canon,” “Music Box Blues,” “Promises to Keep” and “This Christmas Day.” This year’s tour will also boast a rousing second set containing more of TSO’s greatest hits and fan-pleasers including “Wizards in Winter,” “A Mad Russian’s Christmas,” and many more.
“It was so special to be back playing live last year. When you love something as much as we do and it’s taken away, it made us super thankful to be back. I look forward to seeing all our ‘repeat offenders’ and all our new friends when we hit the road,” said TSO’s music director and lead guitarist Al Pitrelli. “I love all of Paul’s stories, but ‘The Ghosts of Christmas Eve’ is one of my favorites and can’t wait to unveil this incredibly amazing new show for everyone. We know some people may be having tough times, so we worked hard with the local promoters and arenas to have a low priced $29 ticket to do our part in helping out. God Bless all of you and see you in November and December when we celebrate in-person once again.”
Keeping with the O’Neill’s vision, TSO remains one of Rck’s most charitable bands. Once again, TSO will give at least $1 from every ticket sold to charity. To date, approximately $18 million has been donated by the group.
