St. Petersburg, FLA (October 25, 2019) – Mannheim Steamroller Christmas is coming to the Duke Energy Center for the Arts – Mahaffey Theater to celebrate 35 years of holiday excitement. This is a chance to experience the magic that started it all with the first ever album created, “Mannheim Steamroller Christmas.”
The show will be on Wednesday, November 13th at 7:30pm. Ticket prices are $46.50-$68.50 and can be purchased online at www.TheMahaffey.com, by phone (727) 300-2000, or at the Box Office located at 400 1st St. South Downtown St. Pete. The Box Office is open 11am – 5pm Monday through Saturday.
“I remember when I came out with my first Christmas album in 1984 followed by our first tour. Back then, many in the music industry said focusing on Christmas just wouldn’t work,” said Davis. “Now, 35 years later, we are still going strong. I want to thank our fans for making us part of their holiday tradition. Today we often see multi-generational families join us during the holidays each year.”
