Nashville, TN – September 25, 2026 – iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball 2026 Presented by Capital One is set to bring a star-studded lineup to multiple cities this holiday season, with events scheduled in Nashville, Detroit, New York, and Boston, among others. The concerts will showcase popular artists, including Hilary Duff, OneRepublic, Nickelback, and many more, culminating in a celebration of music and holiday spirit.
The Nashville event will take place on December 17 at 7:30 p.m. at Bridgestone Arena, featuring performances by Alex Warren, Hilary Duff, Teddy Swims, OneRepublic, Nickelback, Stella Lefty, The Beaches, and JYT. The concert is part of the national iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour, which captures the essence of the holiday season through music, visiting cities such as Dallas/Ft. Worth, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and Nashville.
In Detroit, Channel 95.5 has announced its Jingle Ball 2026, taking place on December 8 at Little Caesars Arena, featuring artists like Alex Warren, Ludacris, Tove Lo, Jason Derulo, and Freya Skye. The Boston concert, hosted by Kiss 108, is scheduled for December 13 at TD Garden, featuring a similar lineup that includes SOMBR, Nickelback, and TOMORROW X TOGETHER & YEONJUN.
Each event will offer Capital One cardholders early access to tickets through a presale running from September 29 to October 1, 2026. General ticket sales will commence on October 2 at 12 p.m. local time. Cardholders can also opt for a Capital One Access Pass, granting them entry to exclusive pre-show parties with performing artists.
The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour has become a staple of the holiday season, uniting fans through music and philanthropy. This year, as in previous years, $1 from every ticket sold will be donated to the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing interactive media studios for pediatric hospitals. The foundation aims to create joyful experiences for children undergoing treatment, making the concerts not just a source of entertainment but also a means of giving back to the community.
According to Jonathan Shuford, Program Director for iHeartMedia Nashville’s 107.5 The River, “The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball tour is a celebration of the biggest hits and cultural moments in 2026, and there’s no place for that celebration to culminate than in Music City.” The event is expected to draw large crowds, as it offers a unique opportunity to see multiple top-tier artists in one venue.
In addition to Nashville, Channel 95.5 in Detroit and Kiss 108 in Boston have also embraced the spirit of the season with their respective Jingle Ball events. Tony Travatto, Program Director for iHeartMedia Detroit’s WKQI, stated, “This year’s lineup is awesome, with many different styles of music. It combines current hits with nostalgia, and we can’t wait to share another unforgettable night with our listeners at Little Caesars Arena.”
As anticipation builds for the Jingle Ball events, fans are encouraged to mark their calendars for the presale and general ticket sales. The Capital One cardholder presale begins on September 29, allowing early access to high-demand tickets. This presale is expected to sell out quickly, as fans rush to secure their spots for what will likely be memorable concerts.
Once tickets go on sale to the general public on October 2, fans will have the chance to experience the holiday magic live, with performances from their favorite artists. The excitement surrounding the lineup and the charitable aspect of the events adds to the allure, making it a must-see for music lovers this holiday season.
For those interested in attending, more information can be found at the respective stations' websites, including ticket details and artist updates. As the concert dates approach, fans are advised to stay tuned for any changes to the lineup or event details. The Jingle Ball tour is a celebration of music and a reminder of the joy and spirit of giving during the holiday season.
