Nickelback, Hilary Duff and OneRepublic on One Bill: Jingle Ball Closes Its 2026 Tour at Bridgestone Arena on Dec. 17
Holiday concert season in Nashville just got its headliner, and it arrived before the leaves have even turned.
The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball tour, the traveling pop show that has become a December ritual in the country's biggest arenas, will close its 2026 run at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday, Dec. 17. Nashville's night is billed as 107.5 The River's Jingle Ball, and it is the last of nine stops on a tour that opens Dec. 1 in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and works its way through Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Boston, Washington and Philadelphia before landing downtown on Broadway.
The Nashville lineup
Each city gets its own mix of artists, and Nashville's is an unusually wide one. It stretches from arena rock to pop to soul:
- Nickelback, the Canadian rock band whose run of radio hits reaches back to the early 2000s
- OneRepublic, still one of the most dependable singalong acts in pop
- Hilary Duff, a name that will send a certain generation straight back to middle school
- Teddy Swims, the soul singer whose voice has made him one of the breakout stars of the past few years
- Alex Warren, the singer-songwriter who went from online creator to radio staple
- Stella Lefty, The Beaches and JYT rounding out the bill
Showtime is 7:30 p.m. Because the lineup is a multi-act revue, expect shorter sets from each artist and a long, fast-moving night rather than a single headliner with an opener.
How to get tickets
Capital One cardholders get the first crack. Their presale opens Tuesday, Sept. 29, at 10 a.m. and runs until 10 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1. Everyone else can buy starting Friday, Oct. 2, at noon through Ticketmaster.
Shows like this tend to move quickly in the first hours of a sale, particularly for floor and lower-bowl seats, so if you are set on a specific section it is worth being ready at the start.

A show with a cause
The tour is also a fundraiser. For the 13th straight year it is partnered with the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, which builds broadcast media centers inside children's hospitals, and Nashville is one of the tour cities that foundation work supports.
Getting there
A Thursday night in mid-December downtown means holiday crowds on Broadway, so plan parking early or take a rideshare. Bridgestone Arena is also in the middle of a major renovation plan; for a look at what is coming to the building, read our story on the Predators' new arena renderings. Making a weekend of it?
