Christmas with Chris Ruggiero, Emil Stucchio and The Classics and The Tribunes 

2025-12-21-Chris-Ruggiero-Christmas-sq-REV.jpg

Chris Ruggiero returns to Bayway Arts Center for his first-ever Christmas show in our theater, with special guests Emil Stucchio & the Classics and acappella stars The Tribunes. Chris’s show features fan favorites from his critically-acclaimed Christmas album such as “Sleigh Ride,” “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” as well as songs from his 4 prior albums, all delivered in Chris’s own classic style. Chris has been touring the country breathing new life into vintage rock and roll tunes, in over 100 towns and cities so far! You may have seen him singing on Good Morning America or read about his Christmas album in Rolling Stone, but nothing compares to seeing Chris live!

The Classics will bring a sleighful of Christmas cheer of their own, plus Emil’s big hit “Till Then” and more! The Tribunes will take you back to the roots of rock and roll with an acappella set of finger- snapping classics, adding to an already- magical evening of warmth & nostalgia.

Whether you’re a teenager of the 1960s or just love good music, don’t miss one of the most energetic and fun-filled holiday rock and roll shows you’ll ever see.
