Trans-Siberian Orchestra at Nationwide Arena in Columbus

The annual lasers-and-strings holiday spectacle at Nationwide Arena, with afternoon and evening shows on December 5 for families who want the big production

Trans-Siberian Orchestra returns to Nationwide Arena on Saturday, December 5, 2026, with matinee and evening performances listed at 3:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The touring production mixes rock orchestra, holiday repertoire, and a light show sized for an NHL arena.

This is a December staple for multi-generational groups. Tickets sell through Ticketmaster, and both shows can move inventory quickly once public sales open. Arena District parking and post-show rideshare congestion are part of the experience, same as any Saturday arena night.

Pick the afternoon show if you have younger kids or want an earlier bedtime. Dress for a cold walk from the garage, and save mobile tickets to a wallet app before you lose signal in the bowl.
