Mariah Carey is coming to the small screen near you! CBS will air her live holiday concert, Mariah Carey: Merry Christmas To All, on Tuesday, December 20th. The two-hour special will feature songs of the yuletide spirit, including Mariah’s chart-topper, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” The festivities air at 8 PM/7 Central.
Along with CBS’s premiere, the concert will be available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+. MTV will additionally host the special following the live broadcast as part of the CBS/Paramount Global alignment. There will be more specific details to come in the upcoming weeks.
The concert comes after Mariah’s two-date holiday revue tour (also titled Merry Christmas To All) that kicks off earlier in the month. The first stop will headline in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on December 11th. Then, it is off to Madison Square Garden in New York on December 13th. Mariah will deliver the Christmas spirit during both performances through song, dance, and her sparkling display of costumes and backdrops.
The multi-Grammy recipient has been crowned the “Queen of Christmas” due to the many holiday collaborations and festive music numbers. When first released in 1994, “All I Want For Christmas Is You” the song became an instant smash and continued to be successful years after. Mariah continued her reign by launching her exclusive Christmas cake line with NYC-based bakery Milk Bar and a productive cookie line.
This year, Mariah debuted her illustrated children’s book, The Christmas Princess. It is a sweet tale about a young Mariah helping others find the magic of Christmas while overcoming self-challenges. The book comes after her first Christmas tale, 2015’s All I Want For Christmas Is You, about a young girl adopting a puppy for the holidays.
The Mariah Carey: Merry Christmas To All concert will broadcast on CBS on December 20th at 8/7c.
