Mariah Carey continues to build on her reputation as the queen of modern Christmas pop. According to a detailed tour overview on a major music encyclopedia, her branded holiday production Mariah Carey's Christmas Time will reach Brazil for two arena shows in November 2026.
Holiday tour reaches Brazil
The 2026 edition of Mariah Carey's Christmas Time is scheduled to include two concerts in Brazil, marking the show's first international dates outside North America since an earlier European run in 2018. A concert list published in mid-2026 names São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro as the confirmed cities for these performances.
For fans based in Germany, these Brazilian dates represent a long-distance but clearly defined opportunity to see Carey perform her Christmas repertoire live in 2026, at a time when no officially confirmed German concerts have been documented by primary tour or venue sources.
Key dates and venues
The published 2026 concert schedule for Mariah Carey's Christmas Time lists a show in São Paulo on November 17, 2026 at Nubank Parque, a large open-air venue used for major music events. A second show follows on November 21, 2026 in Rio de Janeiro at Farmasi Arena, one of the city's multi-purpose indoor venues.
These two dates form a compact South American leg, concentrated in November and positioned shortly before the traditional peak of the Christmas season. Together they extend Carey's established pattern of combining residency-style engagements in Las Vegas with selective international appearances under her holiday brand.
