Martina McBride announced she will hit the road for her ninth annual The Joy of Christmas Tour. The 14-date holiday tour kicks off on Nov. 29 in Biloxi, Miss., and makes additional stops in Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago and more.
“This show is so much fun to do,” says Martina. “We have everything from classic hymns like ‘O Holy Night’ to fun, big band swing classics like ‘Winter Wonderland’ and ‘Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.’ It’s all very visual, the songs are well-loved, and you leave with a warm feeling. I love to think of entire families—from grandparents to grandchildren—enjoying The Joy of Christmas. It’s really a show for the whole family.”
Martina’s 1998 holiday album, White Christmas, has become a yuletide standard. She released her second holiday album, It’s the Holiday Season, in 2018.
