Mariah Carey is returning to Thailand this year for a highly-anticipated concert tour – eight years since she last graced a Bangkok stage.
The Songbird Supreme is set to delight Thai Lambily on October 11 at the Impact Challenger Hall with the “Mariah Carey: The Celebration Of Mimi – Live In Bangkok” event, an extension of her fifth concert residency held at the Dolby Live in Las Vegas in 2024.
Built on Carey’s multi-platinum 2005 album, “The Emancipation Of Mimi,” the concert will showcase hit songs “We Belong Together,” “Fly Like a Bird” and “I Wish You Knew,” among other famous tracks throughout the pop star’s decades-long career.
Official ticket sales for the “Mariah Carey: The Celebration Of Mimi – Live In Bangkok” began on July 19 via thaiticketmajor.com and accredited Thai Ticket Major outlets across the country.
Pre-sale tickets were made available on the same platform a day before.
The last time Carey performed in Thailand was in November 2018, for the “Mariah Carey: Live in Concert,” tour.
Held at the Bitec Hall 106 in Bangkok, the concert featured some of Carey’s greatest hits in the 90s, including “Always be my Baby,” “Emotion,” and “My all.”
