Trans-Siberian Orchestra Celebrates 30th Anniversary Winter Tour at Mohegan Sun

Trans-Siberian Orchestra Celebrates 30th Anniversary Winter Tour at Mohegan Sun

2026 Milestone Tour Showcases a Spectacular, Reimagined Production of ‘The Ghosts of Christmas Eve’

UNCASVILLE, CT (September 9, 2026) – Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO), is bringing its landmark 30th anniversary Winter Tour to Mohegan Sun Arena for two performances on Sunday, November 29th at 3:00pm and 8:00pm. Celebrating three decades of unforgettable holiday entertainment, the tour will feature a spectacular, reimagined staging of its treasured tale, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve,” followed by a high-energy second set. Renowned for delivering fans the ultimate “value for their dollar,” TSO pairs its legendary audio/visual experience, complete with over-the-top lasers, pyrotechnics, and special effects, with fan-friendly ticket pricing that welcomes generations of fans year after year.

Tickets go on sale Friday, September 18th at 10:00am via ticketmaster.com. Fan Club pre-sales begin September 10th and 11th, with national and local pre-sales launching September 17th. To ensure this milestone celebration remains accessible to as many families as possible, TSO significantly expanded lower-priced ticket inventory in every city across the tour.

“Thirty years in, we never take a single person in that audience for granted,” said TSO music director and guitarist Al Pitrelli. “With the economy the way that it is right now, it shouldn’t be a mortgage payment for a family to come out to see us. Paul O’Neill, TSO’s late creator, lyricist, and composer, was very adamant about giving people in the audience more ‘show’ than they could’ve even imagined, and that’s what we do every year. We reimagine the show, we rebuild it, we make it bigger than last year so people come back again. I want you to look and go ‘Oh my God, they outdid themselves one more time!’ We want to make sure you guys can come out and celebrate because you and everyone in that audience are the greatest fans in the world.”

The foundation for this milestone was laid in 1996, when Paul O’Neill launched a project that would forever alter the music and holiday landscape. Since its formation, TSO has grown into a critically acclaimed, multi-platinum powerhouse progressive rock group, generating more than $1 billion in gross ticket sales and establishing its annual “rock theater” tour as a multi-generational tradition. Now, three decades later, the group is proud to bring this treasured production to cities across North America once again.

As O’Neill explained in 2010, “When someone goes to a TSO concert, we don’t want them to walk away saying ’that was a great show’ or ’that was worth it’ or even ’that was the best show I’ve seen in a long time.’ We want them to say, ‘Man, that was the best show ever; we just ripped that band off.’”

Based on TSO’s TV show and multi-platinum DVD, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve” follows the journey of a runaway who breaks into an abandoned vaudeville theater on December 24th. While seeking shelter from the cold, the teen is discovered by the theater’s caretaker, who uses the ghosts and spirits from the building’s past to turn her life around.

The rock opera features beloved songs originally forged by O’Neill and the group’s composers – tracks that have evolved into massive, permanent fixtures of modern culture. TSO’s signature hit, “Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24,” has achieved rare status as an untouchable seasonal juggernaut. Standing as the #3 best-selling holiday digital single in music history, the track alone has amassed more than 300 million global streams. Decades after its initial recording, the RIAA 3x Platinum-certified track remains in heavy seasonal radio rotation, dominates commercial soundtracks, and serves as the global standard for synchronized neighborhood and commercial animated light displays every winter.

Alongside the group’s signature single are TSO’s brilliant, Pachelbel-inspired “Christmas Canon,” which itself commands over 250 million streams, and enduring fan-favorites like “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “Mad Russian Christmas,” “Wizards in Winter,” “Requiem (the Fifth)” and “This Christmas Day,” which also continue to anchor dozens of major holiday playlists across Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Music, commanding top streaming numbers worldwide, year after year.

As in all previous years, at least $1 of every ticket sold benefits select local charities. Driven by their massive fanbase, TSO reached a monumental milestone in 2024, and announced that they had sold more than 20 million tickets in total and had distributed in excess of $20 million to worthy charities all across North America.

Beloved Holiday Dance Comedy Nut/Cracked is Live at Mohegan Sun for Two Nights this December

Beloved Holiday Dance Comedy Nut/Cracked is Live at Mohegan Sun for Two Nights this December

Nut/Cracked, The Gang Group’s version of The Nutcracker, is part holiday tradition and part laugh-out-loud comedy, with unforgettable daning. It arrives at Mohegan Sun’s Cabaret Theatre (The Cab) for back-to-back dates beginning Friday, December 4th. With jazz, tap, ballet and a cheeky dose of humor, these family friendly shows are slated for 7:00pm, with tickets on-sale this Friday, August 28th via Ticketmaster.

Nut/Cracked is a genre blending celebration of the winter holidays, as The Bang Group & Choreographer David Parker liberate the famous ballet from its plot and tradition. The show seeks a new identity as a free-wheeling, genre-fluid vaudeville which breaks apart elements of the holiday season: surprise, anticipation, greed, community, generosity, and delight in a series of dances drawing inspiration from all corners of the dance canon—tap riffs and en pointe ballet by way of bubble wrap, disco, and Chinese take-out noodles, with modern and post-modern dance, disco, social forms and pure invention. Nothing is sacred as Nut/Cracked twists and melds various dance traditions into an ode to American eclecticism that honors the power of the human urge to dance while riding Tchaikovsky’s voluptuous waves of rhythm.

Praised by The New York Times as “immensely entertaining” and “intensely musical,” this production combines humor and artistry to leave audiences seeing The Nutcracker in a whole new light.

Tickets for both Nut/Cracked performances in The Cab go on sale Friday, August 28th via Ticketmaster. Tickets will also be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning Saturday, August 29th, subject to availability.

For more information, visit mohegansun.com.

UNCASVILLE, CT (August 24, 2026) – Multi-platinum, award-winning violinist Lindsey Stirling has announced her return to Mohegan Sun Arena on Thursday, December 3, 2026, as part of her acclaimed Snow Waltz Holiday Tour. Celebrating its ninth year, the holiday spectacular blends music, dance, aerial acrobatics and theatrical production into a magical seasonal experience for fans of all ages. The announcement follows the recent gold certification of Stirling’s chart-topping 2017 holiday album, Warmer in the Winter, featuring her beloved rendition of “Carol of the Bells.”

Tickets to see Lindsey Stirling at Mohegan Sun Arena go on sale Friday, August 28th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster. Tickets will also be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning Saturday, August 29th, subject to availability.

There, fans can check out a Christmas gallery featuring costumes and memorabilia curated by Lindsey, a special photo opp, and so much more.

“I put a little bit of spookiness into it,” she said about her unique holiday concert performances. “I’m a big fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas as well as Harry Potter, which I feel like marries a little bit of that magic and spooky.”

Lindsey has indeed become a holiday staple, a “must-see” yuletide concert stage performer since the release of her first Christmas album, the chart-topping Warmer in the Winter, and its Top 10 AC radio single “Carol of the Bells.” Her second Christmas album, Snow Waltz, also reached #1 on the U.S. Top Classical Albums and hit #2 on the Top Holiday Albums chart. Stirling’s annual Snow Waltz Tour, with over 1 million tickets sold across nine years, delivers a magical holiday experience with whimsical yet daring choreography, stunning visuals, and genre-defying arrangements of holiday classics and originals that captivate fans of all ages.

That is quintessential Stirling, an arresting artist who stylishly blends sonics with visuals and defies easy categorization. She mixes pop, rock, classical, hip-hop, and electronica, then tops it all off with meticulous attention to impactful, thematic album and video artwork.

Stirling’s auspicious introduction arrived in 2010 when she was a finalist on America’s Got Talent, however things really kick started once she uploaded her first video to YouTube. Her self-titled, now platinum-certified debut album in 2012 set the stage for six more lauded studio efforts, including 2014’s stunning Shatter Me, another gold-seller, and 2024’s Duality, an experimental opus that embraces Lindsey’s indie music spirit with extravagant soundscapes and guest performances by Royal & the Serpent and Walk Off the Earth. Duality also inspired a 40-dates tour in 2024, and a deluxe edition featuring exciting new tracks alongside fan favorites including Chrissy Costanza, Rachel Platten, and Shuba.
