NEW YORK, NY – Due to overwhelming demand and five sold out shows, a sixth Christmas show has been added on December 22^nd! Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey previously announced that she will bring her all-time favorite, chart-topping, evergreen Christmas hits to the Beacon Theatre for six unprecedented performances this December 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, and 22.

Celebrating the 20^th anniversary of her worldwide bestselling album “Merry Christmas,” Mariah will spread festive love and cheer on stage performing her classics from the album that is certified 5x platinum by the RIAA and has sold over 14 million copies to date, as well as hits from her critically acclaimed holiday follow up, “Merry Christmas II You.”

Mariah Carey is the best-selling female artist of all time with more than 200 million albums sold to date and 18 Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles (17 self-penned), more than any solo artist in history.  Mariah is a singer/songwriter/producer recognized with multiple Grammy Awards, 21 American Music Awards, Billboard's “Artist of the Decade” Award, the World Music Award for “World's Best Selling Female Artist of the Millennium,” and BMI's “Icon Award” for her outstanding achievements in songwriting, to name a few – with her distinct five-octave vocal range, prolific songwriting, and producing talent, Mariah is truly the template of the modern pop performance.
