Sett said they were starting off in New Jersey so look for something around there.

The show in Seattle has Meet and Greet tickets ... and not through PBS :o
S. Mark Taper Foundation Auditorium - Benaroya Hall

Oh wow, have they done non-PBS meet and greets before?
I've been regularly checking websites of venues and orchestras around Minneosta, Wisconsin and Iowa and haven't found anything yet. Please please please come close to me!
-
The more dates I'm finding and filling into the calendar, the more it's looking like there won't be a show near me :( There aren't very many open days left where it would make sense in the schedule that they'll venture into this area. If I get to see it, I think it'll be one of the New Jersey shows because then we could also see Manhattan at Christmas time, which we've been wanting to do anyway. Would be a fun little trip!

The show in Missouri has my interest. It's about an 8 hour drive - long, but doable, and they are so worth it. It's only 100 miles further than the 2016 Christmas show we went to. This also intrigues me because I haven't yet found anything for the day before the Missouri show, so it's possible they'll be closer. I also still like the idea of a New Jersey show plus seeing Manhattan during the holidays. A couple of possibilities here!

NYC in December is kinda neat. My daughter and I were there a few years ago. Radio City Christmas Spectacular is good. Gotta see the tree at Rock Center. Did a carriage ride thru Central Park in the snow.

Sounds great!

As noted above, tickets to the December 17, 2018 Best of Christmas Concert with the Colorado Symphony, at the Boettcher Concert Hall, in Denver, CO, go on sale on August 1, 2018. HOWEVER, if you'd like to get your tickets before then (and who wouldn't), they are currently running a presale; the code is: MUSIC1819

The Christmas tour dates have posted on the Celtic Woman website:
https://www.celticwoman.com/tour-dates/
There are only a couple shows that we hadn't already found on venue websites. I'll update the calendar after work. Looks like no show for me, they're coming nowhere close and we won't have the travel funds since we're extending our Ireland trip. That's ok though, we got Johnstown Castle!!

Aww, I'm sorry they're not coming close enough to you.
I've got the one show I already knew about and have a ticket for. There are no other shows within "reasonable range" at the moment (unless Lisa's show or CaraNua's show happens to be near another CW show at the right time).

Thanks Tom, I'm glad you get to go! Hope you get a meet and greet with it too. You can give us a full report of the show :)

Working on the Meet and Greet. We should know by September.

I've seen the December 22 Atlanta date advertised on YouTube for quite a while now but I wasn't sure if it was real. Yay for official announcements.
I expect Lisa Kelly to have a Christmas concert in the same area this year (as she said on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/lisakellysings/posts/1905613556149730)). Her academy is based in Peachtree City, right near Atlanta. So a trip to Atlanta in December seems like it could be thing to do if the dates are close enough (but not conflicting!).

Yes. Hopefully Lisa's show is near Dec 22. They'll have to be within a few days of each other for it to work for me this time. Ireland's going to take almost all my vacation days and there's still CaraNua's rumored tour to consider. I suppose I could take "unpaid leave days" if necessary to make this all happen...

I just ordered a ticket for the Springfield, IL show! Center orchestra pit seat!! Cant wait!!! :)
-
Ummmm yeah, remember when I said I could do without a Christmas show since we got to go to Johnstown Castle? That didn't last long before we cracked! Gregg and I just booked flight, hotel and tickets for the show in Denver! Center orchestra seats, row 7. Found a really cheap flight because Denver and Minneapolis are both hubs for Frontier. Also my team at work is in pretty desperate need of overtime to be worked with our massive work load, so I said I'll pay for this trip with overtime pay. And it'll make the overtime hours ok (I despise working overtime) because I'm rewarding myself for it. Lol Had to work out some sort of convoluted logic to fuel the Celtic Woman addiction! Christmas show here we come!!

Yay!!! So happy you'll get to see them!

Thanks Tom! Now I'm going to attempt to be completely surprised at this show by not looking at any setlists or reviews of the earlier shows. I love being surprised but am never able to make it during the spring tour because it's always within the final two weeks when they come near me. Let's see if I can actually make it spoiler free to this one or if I can't handle the wait!

I've thought about trying to do a show spoiler-free. Usually I like to know the set list at least before the show because it makes it a bit easier to take notes. That said, I saw Ancient Land and Celtic Thunder X without knowing the set list in advance and it wasn't too much of a problem keeping track of things.
I'll be basically spoiler free for the Best of Christmas tour as I'm seeing the second show of the tour.
