Three-time Grammy Award-winning and Daytime Emmy Award-nominated vocal quintet Pentatonix have announced a new leg of their massively successful “Christmas In The City Tour.” Following last year’s successful holiday tour, Pentatonix will once again bring their signature harmonies, festive spirit and unforgettable performances to 28 arenas across North America this November and December, including a stop at KeyBank Center in Buffalo on Nov. 18.

Presale signups are available now at PTXOfficial.com. KeyBank Center presale begins at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 12. General on sale begins next Friday, Aug. 14, at 10 a.m. Buy tickets here.

This year’s tour celebrates not only the holidays, but also the release of the deluxe edition of Pentatonix’s 2025 album “Christmas In The City.” Inspired by the magic of Christmastime in New York, “Christmas In The City” was the group’s eighth Christmas album and subtly expanded its sound with a jazzy, warm holiday spirit coursing through both yuletide standards and new originals. The deluxe edition features the original 16-track album with 10 new songs, two covers, seven live recordings and a new single, “Get Happy / Happy Days Are Here Again.”

Sharing her excitement about the new single, Kirstin Maldonado said, “ ‘Get Happy / Happy Days Are Here Again’ was a fun one to create! We love this iconic mashup, and it fits perfectly into our homage to the classic Christmas tunes of Hollywood's ‘golden age’ and the timeless jazz era on this album. We hope everyone enjoys this beautiful arrangement!"

Kicking off in Tacoma, Washington, on Nov. 5, the 2026 leg of the “Christmas In The City” tour will bring Pentatonix to audiences across North America, making stops in markets spanning Montana and Wyoming through the Midwest, across to the Northeast and back to California for a finale just a few days before Christmas.

On this year’s tour, Pentatonix will partner with the music education nonprofit Save The Music. As a cause near and dear to the group’s heart due to its connection with preserving music education in schools, fans will have the opportunity to make a charitable donation to the organization during the ticket purchase process on select shows.

The new tour and “Christmas In The City Deluxe” cap off a dynamic year for Pentatonix, marking a bold new era introduced by their first non-holiday single in five years, “Heaven On Earth.” Together with July single “Sacrifice,” “Heaven On Earth” continued an ongoing collaboration with Grammy Award-winning producer Poo Bear, pairing Pentatonix’s iconic harmonies with cinematic pop production. The quintet also embarked on a successful European arena tour, will be performing at Japan’s Summer Sonic Festival in Osaka and Tokyo in August, and continue to build on a remarkable legacy that spans three Grammy Awards, billions of global streams, and sold-out tours around the world.

Their single, “Hallelujah” also achieved international success as a Platinum-certified single in Canada and Gold-certified in Germany and Switzerland. They notably made history as the first a cappella act to win Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella at the Grammy Awards in 2015 and 2016. A year later, they earned another Grammy Award in the category Best Country Duo/Group Performance for their duet with Dolly Parton on her song “Jolene.”
