Pentatonix brings the 2026 Christmas in the City Tour @ KFC Yum! Center

PENTATONIX ANNOUNCES MASSIVE 2026 CHRISTMAS IN THE CITY TOUR

THE QUINTET’S WILDLY POPULAR CHRISTMAS SHOW RETURNS TO THE KFC YUM! CENTER THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Louisville, KY (August 6, 2026) — Three-time GRAMMY® Award-winning and Daytime EMMY® Award-nominated vocal quintet Pentatonix have announced a new leg of their massively successful Christmas In The City Tour will be heading to the KFC Yum! Center on November 16, 2026. Following last year’s successful holiday tour, Pentatonix will once again bring their signature harmonies, festive spirit and unforgettable performances to 28 arenas across North America this November and December. General onsale begins next Friday, August 14, at 10AM local time. Buy tickets HERE.

This year’s tour celebrates not only the holidays, but also the release of the deluxe edition of Pentatonix’s 2025 album Christmas In The City. Inspired by the magic of Christmastime in New York, Christmas In The City was the group’s eighth Christmas album and subtly expanded their sound with a jazzy, warm holiday spirit coursing through both Yuletide standards and new originals. The deluxe edition features the original 16-track album with 10 new songs, 2 covers, 7 live recordings and a new single “Get Happy / Happy Days Are Here Again.”

Sharing her excitement about the new single, Kirstin Maldonado says, “Get Happy / Happy Days Are Here Again” was a fun one to create! We love this iconic mashup, and it fits perfectly into our homage to the classic Christmas tunes of Hollywood’s Golden Age and the timeless jazz era on this album. We hope everyone enjoys this beautiful arrangement!”

On this year’s tour, Pentatonix will partner with the music education non-profit Save The Music. As a cause near and dear to the group’s heart due to its connection with preserving music education in schools, fans will have the opportunity to make a charitable donation to the organization during the ticket purchase process on select shows.

The new tour and Christmas In The City Deluxe cap off a dynamic year for Pentatonix, marking a bold new era introduced by their first non-holiday single in five years, “Heaven On Earth.” Together with July single “Sacrifice,”“Heaven On Earth” continued an ongoing collaboration with GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Poo Bear, pairing Pentatonix’s iconic harmonies with cinematic pop production. The quintet also embarked on a successful European arena tour, and will be performing at Japan’s Summer Sonic Festival in Osaka and Tokyo in August, and continue to build on a remarkable legacy that spans three GRAMMY® Awards, billions of global streams, and sold-out tours around the world.
