Toledo, OH (September 12, 2022) – Multi-platinum, progressive rock group Trans-Siberian

Orchestra (TSO) - today announced the dates for its highly anticipated 2022 winter tour, The

Ghosts of Christmas Eve – the Best of TSO & More presented by Hallmark Channel. After its

first year off the road in more than two decades, TSO made a triumphant return to touring in

2021 with a 25th anniversary celebration of Christmas Eve and Other Stories. For 2022, TSO

brings a completely updated presentation of the unforgettable, multi-generational holiday

tradition, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve,” to 60 cities across the nation. This year’s tour kicks off

on Wed., Nov. 16 with performances in Green Bay and Council Bluffs, and will conclude after

101 shows on Fri., Dec. 30 (see full itinerary www.trans-siberian.com).

101.5 The River, Toledo’s Rock Station WIOT, Tireman Auto Service Centers, J. Foster Jewelers &

Live Nation are proud to welcome TSO when they return to Toledo for two spectacular shows on

Friday, December 2, at 3pm and 7:30pm at Huntington Center. Tickets for both shows go on sale

Friday, September 16th 10am at www.ticketmaster.com and the Huntington Center Box with a portion

of the proceeds benefiting The Toledo Northwestern Ohio Foodbank. Beginning with the public on

sale, a limited number of specially priced $29* tickets will be available for one week or while

supplies last.

Keeping with the O'Neill's vision (Paul O’Neill, and his wife Desi), TSO remains one of rock’s

most charitable bands. Once again, thankfully, TSO will give at least $1 from every ticket sold to

charity. To date, approximately $18 million has been donated by the group. Desi O’Neill said,

“we want to thank the fans so much for the kindness they showed in coming out last year. It

meant the world to our family. Moreover, the credit for any charitable donation is due to you

not us. The only way we can help all is because of you.”

A product of the imagination of TSO’s late founder Paul O’Neill, and his wife Desi, and based on

TSO’s multi-platinum CD and TV special, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve,” the rock opera features

such enduring fan-favorites as "Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24," "O’ Come All Ye Faithful," "Good

King Joy," "Christmas Canon," "Music Box Blues," "Promises To Keep," and "This Christmas Day."

2022’s tour will also boast a rousing second set containing more of TSO’s greatest hits and fanpleasers

including “Wizards In Winter,” “A Mad Russian’s Christmas,” and many more.

“It was so special to be back playing live last year. When you love something as much as we do

and it's taken away, it made us super thankful to be back. I look forward to seeing all our

‘repeat offenders’ and all our new friends when we hit the road,” said TSO’s music director and

lead guitarist Al Pitrelli. “I love all of Paul’s stories, but ‘The Ghosts of Christmas Eve’ is one of

my favorites and can’t wait to unveil this incredibly amazing new show for everyone. We know

some people may be having tough times, so we worked hard with the local promoters and

arenas to have a low priced $29 ticket to do our part in helping out. God Bless all of you and see

you in November and December when we celebrate in-person once again.”
