What is Christmas Time?

The production began in 2024 to mark the thirtieth anniversary of Merry Christmas. Following a North American tour and a Las Vegas residency, the production is coming to Brazil. For fans, it offers the chance to hear the singer’s familiar Christmas music in a separate theatrical setting.

If you are comparing the Brazilian dates, keep their venues in mind. The 17 November show is in São Paulo; 21 November is in Rio. Your travel plans and ticket need to match the city and date.

Venue and tickets

The concert takes place inside Farmasi Arena. Eventim’s current sale lists seated Cadeira N1 and Cadeira N3 sections, Camarote and standing Pista Premium. Use the current Christmas Time seating plan to choose your area: early outdoor-venue announcements no longer reflect this performance’s format.

Eventim’s current information says that the show’s start time has yet to be confirmed; 16:00 is the listed door-opening time. Check the organiser’s announcements and Eventim messages for the artist’s stage time before deciding when to leave.

Getting to the show

Farmasi Arena is at Avenida Embaixador Abelardo Bueno, 3401. When enquiring with Hola Taxi, specify Mariah Carey at Farmasi Arena and include your hotel or other departure address and the number of passengers. Discuss the return separately around your plans after the performance.
