Pop Royalty Mariah Carey Is Heading to Scarborough Open Air Theatre This Summer

Summer 2027 is shaping up to be a big one, with huge names announced for Scarborough Open Air Theatre, including the likes of Kings of Leon and Shania Twain. And now, the absolute diva of pop and five-time Grammy Award winner, Mariah Carey, is coming to the Yorkshire Coast on her Firefly Summer Festivals Tour.

We’re impressed with this booking, that’s for sure. Summer will be popping off in Britain’s oldest seaside town! The global superstar is hitting the Open Air Theatre stage on Saturday 3rd July 2027. The show will form part of her festival tour. The US singer has enjoyed an undeniable career, selling over 220 million records and becoming one of the best-selling artists of all time.

Mariah is synonymous with Christmas thanks to her hit ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’, but before that, she burst onto the scene with her first five solo singles all reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Some of her biggest hits include ‘We Belong Together’, ‘Obsessed’, ‘One Sweet Day’ and ‘Fantasy’. It’s sure to be an absolute standout show.

Joining Mariah Carey on the bill are iconic British girl group Eternal, adding even more star power to an already huge summer show. Known for their soulful vocals and unforgettable 90s hits, the group became one of the UK’s biggest girl bands, with classics including ‘Stay’, ‘I Wanna Be the Only One’ and ‘Angel of Mine’. It’s set to be a brilliant night of pop nostalgia, with two iconic acts taking to the Scarborough stage.

Mariah joins a fantastic summer line-up of acts at Scarborough Open Air Theatre in 2027. Other acts due to perform include Slash, Kaiser Chiefs, Ronan Keating, Simply Red, The Courteeners and Alex Warren.

Get ready for some boot-stomping tunes in the wonderful seaside setting of Scarborough! Presales begin on Wednesday 11th November at 9am. General tickets go on sale on Friday 13th November at 9am. With tickets expected to be in high demand, we definitely recommend signing up for the presale.
