Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
The 'Queen of Christmas' is gearing up for a very festive holiday season.
Mariah Carey is counting down to her favourite season of the year - Christmas! The 52-year-old has announced two dates for her ‘Merry Christmas to All!’ holiday revue.
The shows are set to take place in New York and Toronto.
"It's almost time NEW YORK + TORONTO!! Come celebrate Christmas with me this December! Lil' excited to be back on stage and get festive with everybody!" she captioned a picture of the concert poster.

Mariah is considered the 'Queen of Christmas' and doesn't miss out on an opportunity to go big during the festive season.
The 'Butterfly' hitmaker celebrates the end of Halloween by declaring November 1 as the official start of the holiday season.
The Grammy Award winner has released several Christmas songs over the years, but none have come close to her #1 hit, "All I Want For Christmas Is You'.
The 1994 classic has re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 almost every year and claimed the number-one spot in 2019, 2020, and 2021!
The song officially reached a billion streams on Spotify last year. While Mariah is often ridiculed for her love for Christmas, the star told Naomi Campbell in 2020 that she goes all out because she did not have a merry Christmas as a child.
"I know it's like 'ha ha she loves Christmas,' no I literally do... I was a sad kid that wanted Christmas to be great. I wanted a real family that cared about me. I wanted them to care and I wanted them not to ruin it and they ruined it every year," she said on the'No Filter With Naomi' YouTube series.
