“To quote the song, Christmas is my ‘Favorite Time of Year,’ so it’s a lot of fun to get to perform some of my favorite holiday songs during our December shows — some of them for the first time live,” Underwood said in a statement. “I’m thrilled to be announcing six more shows in October 2024, and can’t wait to be back on the Resorts World Theatre stage next year.”

Underwood shuts it down every show by singing “Something In The Water” under a tidal torrent.

Aside from Luke Bryan’s dates Jan. 3-5, Underwood is the lone residency headliner booked at Resorts World in 2024.

The Theatre is for the second straight year was named the world’s highest-grossing venue under 5,000 capacity on Billboard’s Annual Top Grossing Venues list for 2023. The reporting covered Nov. 1, 2022, through Sept. 30, 2023.
