Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s annual holiday tour has become a cherished tradition for many, and in 2025, the group is set to bring its signature blend of rock and orchestral music to audiences across the nation. With 106 performances scheduled in 64 markets, the tour promises to add a heavy dose of musical magic to the festive season.
This year, multiple casts will take the stage with an all-new production of the beloved “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve.” In addition to this immersive holiday experience, fans can look forward to a special second set featuring hits and fan-favorites, including a tribute to the 25th anniversary of the iconic album “Beethoven’s Last Night.”
Musical Director and guitarist Al Pitrelli expressed his excitement about the upcoming tour, stating, “When I go back and listen to our songs, I am always amazed at how quickly the time has gone by. It’s been 25 years since we recorded Beethoven’s Last Night, and it seems just like yesterday. We are excited to play pieces from the album and pay respects to the art and legacies of both the great composer and Paul O’Neill. I’m looking forward to watching the expressions on everyone’s faces, with all the surprises we have in store. We can’t wait to get on the road.”
