At every show, Manilow will shine a spotlight on local music educators through the Manilow Music Teacher Award.

The award honors teachers whose passion and dedication help bring music to life for their students. Nominees will be revealed on February 19th when voting opens, and the teacher who receives the most online votes will be recognized during Manilow’s concert and awarded a $10,000 prize, including a $5,000 cash award and $5,000 in ‘Manilow Bucks’ for classroom instruments.

The announcement kicks off what promises to be an exciting year ahead for Barry Manilow, with new music expected to arrive in 2026.

Ticket presales begin Thursday, January 29th, with all tickets going on sale Friday, January 30th, at 10 a.m. through the Cross Insurance Arena’s website.
