Jim Brickman plays A Christmas Celebration at the Davidson Theatre in the Riffe Center, 77 South High Street, at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, December 18, 2026. The Cleveland-born pianist and songwriter has toured this holiday concert for years, and many in the audience come back every December.

Brickman built his following on gentle solo piano and adult contemporary songs, and the Christmas show stays in that lane: arrangements of carols, his own holiday originals, and stories and jokes between numbers. The pacing leaves room for the audience to sing a few familiar choruses.

The Davidson seats a little over 900, so even the balcony feels close to the piano. With the show falling on the last Friday before Christmas, it works as a calm night out after the shopping rush, and the Riffe Center sits across High Street from the Statehouse.
