If your ideal holiday weekend includes soaring harmonies, sparkling downtown lights, outdoor skating and a comfortable place to unwind, Greenville has a festive plan waiting for you. On Sunday, December 6, 2026, Pentatonix brings its Christmas In The City Tour to Bon Secours Wellness Arena for an evening of unforgettable holiday music.

The concert is a natural centerpiece for a weekend getaway, whether you are traveling with family, planning a festive date night or gathering your favorite friends for a seasonal celebration. Add Greenville’s Poinsettia Christmas Parade and Ice on Main, then make the Sleep Inn® at Greenville Convention Center your relaxing home base.

Pentatonix comes to Bon Secours Wellness Arena

Pentatonix has become one of the most recognizable vocal groups in modern music. The three-time Grammy-winning a cappella group is celebrated for its intricate arrangements, powerful vocals and joyful holiday performances.

Fans can look forward to favorites such as:

  • “Hallelujah”

  • “Mary, Did You Know?”

  • “Carol of the Bells”

  • “Little Drummer Boy”

  • “The Christmas Song”

  • Other selections from the group’s multi-platinum Christmas albums

The Greenville performance is scheduled for Sunday, December 6, 2026, at 6:00 PM at Bon Secours Wellness Arena, located at 650 North Academy Street in downtown Greenville. Doors are expected to open approximately one hour before the event.

The concert is an all-ages event unless otherwise noted. Children over age two must have a ticket, making the show a festive option for families with older children, grandparents and multigenerational groups.

Plan your tickets before the holiday rush

Tickets are currently available through the official Ticketmaster event page and the arena’s box office. The GSP International Airport Box Office is located at the arena and generally operates Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 2 PM, although hours may vary.

The event uses mobile entry, so download the Ticketmaster app and have your tickets available on your phone before leaving for the arena. Saving your tickets in advance can make entry easier if mobile service is busy around the venue.

Pentatonix VIP upgrades may also be available, but remember that a VIP upgrade does not necessarily include an event ticket. Read the package details carefully and purchase a standard concert ticket separately if required.

Know the clear bag and cashless policies

A little preparation can help you spend less time in line and more time enjoying the concert.

Bon Secours Wellness Arena has a clear bag policy. Each ticketed guest may bring:

  • One clear bag no larger than 12” x 6” x 12”

  • One one-gallon clear plastic freezer bag

  • One small clutch or wallet no larger than 5.5” x 8.5”

Backpacks, large purses, briefcases, cinch bags and oversized non-clear bags are not permitted. Guests who arrive with an unapproved bag may need to return it to their vehicle or transfer their belongings into a venue-provided clear bag.

Review the arena’s official clear bag policy before the show for the latest information, especially if you are bringing baby supplies or medically necessary items.

Food and beverage concessions inside the arena are cashless. Credit cards, debit cards and mobile payment options such as Apple Pay and Google Pay are accepted. Guests who need to exchange cash for a Visa gift card may visit the box office inside the arena at the start of the show.

Make it a full holiday weekend in Greenville

Pentatonix is the Sunday night highlight, but the weekend offers plenty of reasons to arrive early and stay overnight.

See the Poinsettia Christmas Parade

The annual Poinsettia Christmas Parade brings holiday floats, marching bands, community groups and seasonal excitement to Main Street. For 2026, the parade is scheduled for Saturday, December 5, at 6:30 PM, running through downtown Greenville from Augusta Street to North Street.

The parade is a wonderful choice for families and anyone who enjoys classic holiday traditions. Arrive early to find a comfortable viewing spot, then make plans for dinner or dessert downtown after the final float passes.

Visit the City of Greenville’s Poinsettia Christmas Parade page for event updates and final details.

Go skating at Ice on Main

Continue the holiday mood with a skating session at Ice on Main in downtown Greenville. The seasonal outdoor rink traditionally offers timed skating sessions, rental skates and a lively setting surrounded by downtown restaurants and shops.

The official 2026–2027 schedule, hours and ticket information may be updated closer to the season. Check the rink’s current listing before visiting and consider purchasing a session in advance if reservations are available.

Ice on Main is a particularly good daytime activity before the Pentatonix concert. Skate in the afternoon, warm up with a hot drink, enjoy an early dinner and then head to the arena with plenty of time for security and mobile ticket entry.
