“Spectacular Gifts” Shen Yun’s first performance in the East Coast on December 27 in Connecticut

Shen Yun Art Troupe’s 2026 global tour will kick off in France on December 18, 2025. In the United States, on December 27, the Palace Theater in Waterbury, Connecticut, will host the first Shen Yun performance in the East Coast region. Many people consider Shen Yun tickets as the perfect holiday gift.

Ms. Ren, the promotion coordinator for Shen Yun in Connecticut, recently stated in an interview that Waterbury is a city with a long history, and the Palace Theater is one of the national historic landmarks in the United States. Shen Yun has chosen this venue for its first performance in the East Coast, and the local and surrounding area audiences are eagerly anticipating it, feeling deeply honored.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in the United States in 1983, the Palace Theater’s interior retains the style of the 1920s, showcasing the Renaissance period with magnificent decorations such as vaulted ceilings, glass chandeliers, and gold leaf inlays. After a $30 million renovation, it reopened in 2004, combining historical architecture with modern performance functions, revitalizing the venue.

Ms. Ren said, “As Christmas and New Year approach, Shen Yun performance tickets are one of the best gifts to give to family and friends during the holiday season. Watching Shen Yun is a wonderful way to celebrate Christmas and welcome the New Year with loved ones, bringing you good luck and happiness!”

Known as a “must-see performance of a lifetime,” Shen Yun dazzles audiences with top-notch classical Chinese dance, a fusion of live music from East and West, stunning ancient costumes, vivid backdrops, timeless legends, epic stories, and soul-stirring solo performances, presenting the essence of a five-thousand-year-old civilization in a spectacular and emotionally engaging show.

During the performances on December 28-29 last year in Waterbury, Connecticut, Shen Yun sold out both shows, attracting mainstream elites. IBM’s senior software engineer David Yackel, who watched the performance, commented, “The dancers were very elegant, the colors of the costumes were vibrant, and it was very pleasing. The dancers’ skills were superb! We really enjoyed the show!”

Sal Restivo, owner of an insurance brokerage service company, drove all the way from New York City to Waterbury on December 28 last year specifically to watch Shen Yun. He said, “It’s amazing, truly stunning,” and added, “It’s a fantastic performance, and I will definitely come back to see it again.”
