The live performance will be part of a larger series of major outdoor concerts presented by Heritage Live Festivals and running from the 14th to the 17th of August, including performances by Michael Bublé, Stereophonics and more.

Giles Cooper of Heritage Live Festivals said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to bring one of the greatest pop artists of all time to the Royal Sandringham Estate for an exclusive UK headline show. Mariah Carey is an award-winner, a record-breaker, and an absolute global icon – this show will be historic.”

The icon was recently unveiled as a headliner for Brighton and Hove Pride. The annual parade will be returning to Preston Park in the UK’s queer capital this year with the pop star confirmed to be on the bill for August 2. Previous headliners included fellow pop legends Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and Girls Aloud. The Royal event will be Mariah’s second UK show this summer. The singer had been previously lined up to perform in the country in 2020 which was later cancelled due to the COVID pandemic.

The hitmaker is set to perform some of her most popular song such as ‘We Belong Together’, ‘Visions Of Love’, ‘Touch My Body’, ‘Fantasy’, ‘Emotions’ and the festive favourite ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’.

Sandringham is known to be the King’s much-loved country estate where the Royal Family traditionally spends Christmas.

As a forever chart-topping icon, Mariah Carey holds the record for the most number one songs by a solo artist in Billboard Hot 100 history, with 19 chart-toppers to her name. Since her rise to fame in 1990, she has delivered some of the most enduring hits in pop music.
