John Legend is about to sleigh your holiday season! Yes, that’s right—Mr. “All of Me” is going full North Pole, bringing his critically acclaimed festive bops from A Legendary Christmas to a city near you on an 11-stop tour that’s destined to deck your halls and jingle your bells.
Announced on October 4 (the real start of the holiday season, according to Mariah Carey’s calendar), John will kick off his magical sleigh ride in Highland, California on December 2. From there, he’s spreading Christmas cheer faster than a reindeer on a sugar rush, making pit stops in Oklahoma, Georgia, New Jersey, Oregon, and more—ultimately wrapping things up in Maryland on December 21, just in time to drink eggnog by the fire and maybe fall asleep on a pile of tinsel.
“My goal for these shows is simple: I want them to feel like a cozy gathering of friends around a fire, except with me singing and no one burning their marshmallows,” John told the press. He went on to say, “I’ve done holidays in every way imaginable—from a sugar-high child opening too many presents to a sleep-deprived dad untangling 100 miles of Christmas lights. So now, I want to share that rollercoaster with you, but through songs and stories that will make you laugh, cry, and possibly rethink your holiday décor choices.”
If that doesn’t sound like the most wholesome, cinnamon-scented holiday experience, I don’t know what does. So, mark your calendars: presale tickets are available starting Monday, October 7, at 10 a.m. local time. If you miss that, don’t worry—general sale kicks off on Wednesday, October 9, also at 10 a.m., just when your Christmas shopping anxiety hits peak levels.
For all the jolly details, including tour dates, venues, and how to get tickets faster than Santa can squeeze down a chimney, head on over to JohnLegend.com.
Warning: Attending this concert may cause excessive joy, spontaneous caroling, and the irresistible urge to buy an ugly Christmas sweater.
