“Barry Manilow’s A Very Barry Christmas” will air on NBC on December 11 beginning at 10 p.m. ET/PT and stream the next day on Peacock.
The network announced that the special will be filmed at Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, where Barry Manilow performs his smash hit show, “Manilow: Las Vegas – The Hits Come Home!”
With Barry’s renowned 24 piece band, the evening will feature the best of his greatest hits, including “Copacabana,” “Mandy,” “I Write Songs” and “Looks Like We Made It” along with several holiday favorites such as “Jingle Bells,” “Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer,” “Feliz Navidad” and “White Christmas.”
“I love doing our Christmas show! We get to sing my pop hits and my favorite Christmas songs,” Manilow said. “It’s a feel-good hour full of music.”
“Barry Manilow’s A Very Barry Christmas” is executive produced by Manilow, Garry Kief and Rob Kief for Stiletto Entertainment and Paul Morphos of PJM Productions. The special is directed by Matt Askew.
This has been a banner year for the beloved composer and performer as he recently completed a sold-out run at Radio City Music Hall and his second musical, “Harmony,” opens on Broadway in November.
