Charlottesville

Trans-Siberian Orchestra returns to Charlottesville on Wednesday, December 16, 2026, with a show at John Paul Jones Arena. Showtime is 7:30 PM. It is TSO's 30th anniversary, and the band is pulling out all the stops with a spectacular, reimagined staging of The Ghosts of Christmas Eve, followed by a high-energy second set. Expect the legendary TSO audio/visual experience: over-the-top lasers, pyrotechnics, and special effects.

TSO came to Charlottesville only recently by its own standards, first playing here in 2019. One dollar from every ticket goes to local charities, and over the years that has put hundreds of thousands of dollars back into communities across Virginia.
