The concert is presented by Wilbros Live. Tickets go on sale on Saturday, November 22, at 11 a.m. via SMTickets.com and SM Tickets outlets nationwide.
Groban is known for one of the most distinctive and powerful voices in contemporary music. Over the course of his career, he has sold more than 35 million albums worldwide, performed in major venues across multiple continents, and expanded his artistry through acclaimed film, television, and stage appearances. His discography includes a string of multi-platinum releases such as Josh Groban (5x platinum), Closer (6x platinum), Noël (7x platinum), Awake (2x platinum), Illuminations, All That Echoes, Stages, his first UK No. 1 album, Bridges, and his latest studio album Harmony. He has headlined arena tours across North America, Europe, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, and Asia.
In 2016, Groban made his Broadway debut in Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, earning a Tony Award nomination for Best Lead Actor in a Musical. His television and film credits include Glee, The Simpsons, The Office, CSI: NY, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Crazy Ones, Coffee Town, Muppets Most Wanted, and Crazy, Stupid, Love. He also starred in the 2018 Netflix series The Good Cop. In 2022, he returned to Radio City Music Hall for his Great Big Radio City Show residency and embarked on a nationwide tour. He later appeared as the Beast in ABC’s Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration.
Groban once again stepped onto the Broadway stage in spring 2023, taking on the title role in the acclaimed revival of Sweeney Todd. The performance earned him Tony and Grammy nominations and widespread critical praise. Deadline described him as “a full-blown, fully developed Broadway star,” while The New York Times highlighted his “gorgeously sung” performance and “quasi-operatic pop baritone.”
This year, Groban released Gems, an 18-track career-spanning collection. He also headlined a sold-out, five-night run at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas with a hits-focused production of the same name.
He recently announced Hidden Gems, a special collection gathering ten fan-favorite rare tracks, many previously unavailable on streaming, plus one new song. These selections, drawn from years of deluxe editions, fan exclusives, and international releases, showcase the breadth of his musical journey. The collection is led by “The Constant,” a new track written by Groban with award-winning songwriting duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, known for The Greatest Showman and La La Land.
Beyond his artistic achievements, Groban remains a dedicated advocate for arts education. His Find Your Light Foundation continues to support programs that enrich the lives of young people through arts, education, and cultural engagement.
